>>>>>>[ Hey Myzer, wanna get away from Aztech...try
Antarctica!!!!!!!!!!!
I hear there's a bunch of paranormal penguins that would be happy to
keep the Aztech's off your back for a while !!!! Haw Haw
Haw...]<<<<<
---Dark Elf <Chuckle>

>>>>>[ By the way, my cohorts and I agree that blowing up a building to
cover
your tracks means you must have been pretty sloppy!!!! The best 'runners
leave the least evidence. ]<<<<<<

>>>>>[ Dark Elf Beware! P. Johnson has been claiming that he has
discovered
your real identity, and that he has several files implicating you in
a raid on a Yakuza database. He can't use the files in court, but he
can get them to the Yaks who are a bit more direct in their justice
system. ]<<<<<
---Tirandor <From The Dragon's Desk>

>>>>>[ No need to worry, he found some of my "decoy's". The real
person he'll
be handing over to the yaks is a decker who works over at Akaru. Lets
just say this decker made life difficult for me in my younger days.
He'll get a kick out of having the yaks carve their names in his chest.
Besides, do you think I'd be sloppy enough to leave files like that
lying around unless I wanted them to be found!!! ]<<<<<
---Dark Elf <Still the Best>

>>>>>[ I did some legwork today and heard a few rumors about the MagnaTech
job.
<useless drek deleted> You were right, the job was botched. The people
inside probably got in a heap of trouble and had to call backup. Well,
a pal of mine (anonymous) was listing in on a radio descrambler and
said that someone was calling some rigger for help, natch. It seems
like their boss was listening in though, cause a few seconds later
someone else radioed the rigger and told him to "abort the job, with
extreme predjudice". I still don't know who they were though, but the
rigger was using the callsign SkyWolf. I'll lay odds that he was in
a chopper and fired a few missiles into the building!!! Whoever was
sponsoring the operation would rather blow up his 'runners than risk
having them interrogated. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ I think your "pal" was pulling your leg. I downloaded a
few files from
Metro's demolitions department, and according to them it was some kind
of high explosive that was inside the building before it went off.
They seem to think that the charge(s) were built into the place, and
they suspect it was some kind of self-destruct!!!!!!. I'll try swiping
blueprints from records, and see if any of Magna's systems have plans
too, I suspect that Magna blew the place themselves!!!! ]<<<<<

plastique in the pipes works wonders. It's amazing how much it looks
like an inside job.]<<<<<
