Well, to further agitate everything let me toss in some of my own
opinions as well. The failing of the tangible qualities of magic for
recording lies in the fact that the astral impressions are related in a
similar fashion to existing senses or other recordable phenomenon. In
fact, they are not and exist outside those definitions. They are
_referred_ to in those terms so they can be understood but they do not
exist that way.
I am also hate the "Star Trek technobabble invention" that
dramatically expands the way a device is used in way never thought of
before, especially at the drop of a hat. I do believe in the BMHTTB
technology restrictions (Better Men Have Tried That Before). If a new use
for technology can be found someone among the great fictional supporting
cast of the world whose whole life has been dedicated to that technology
would have found it. It's not that I'm against players affecting
technology but I am against players breaking boundaries especially with
nothing more that a psuedotheory (or worse some rules raping).
In short, FASA says it can't be done, it can't be done. It will take
a lot for me to make an exception.

Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal names
more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves, they
answered to another name, because if another discovered their real name,
it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.
Welcome to the Digital Age.
