Dammit, tell me this fraggers working again. Ok, systems seem to be back on
line... Fucking bugs in the deck again...

Ok biys and girls, I seem to be back online. Seems I had a little virus
kicking around the old hard drive, and it slipped past the A-V progs
installed here... All you deckers and comp cowboy wannabes on the Force,
here's a little prog to slap in in case your deck gets sick.

+++++ Download Pepto.exe

That should help keep the viruses away...

Ok, Harkion, I'll meet you tomorrow at >>encrypted<<. I'll bring a friend
along, an Indian by the name of Johnny 99. He's a shaman, and my partner.
Just wanted to let you know ahead of time. Sorry this has taken so long,
but that damn virus was a bitch and a half. had me down for the last week.

Ok, after I meet with Hark, I think we need to have a meeting with everyone
involved on the Chicago end at the Asgard safehouse. I'm not even including
the address on an encrypted line. Our wizzies already have or will be
informing all the team leaders of the addy through the astral. too damn
many deckers watching our tails these days, and too many of them are too
fucking good. Goddamn SOTA. I got some real catching up to do. Harkion,
you may be able to help me in taht field. All my Electronics Fixers used to
be in the CZ.

Also, can each team leader report in and give their team status as well,
along with a brief report on who's involved? I've been out of touch for a
while now, which sucks hard, but couldn't be helped. We need to start
rolling, and we need to figure out who we have and what we can do.

Avenger, you with us now? I know we lost contact with ya, and then
something came through the wire right before I went down. i know your
troops have been a little edgy.

Also, notice that we've changed data lines once more. I've sent
instructions to each teams tech-head so that they know how to adjust the
frequencies on the mailers. I think they managed to track our signals down,
and that's how they got the virus into my hardware. We're going to start
changing teh encryption lines daily. I'll send the new channels out to the
teams deckers each morning. That should at least slow them down.

Ok, it's great to be back online again, now let's get the ball rolling,
before our friends catch up to us again. I would certainly like to take the
initiative once more... ]<<<<<

>>>>>[Now, gentelmen, I am confused. First I was under the impression that
I would be meeting Bull. Then, after a long pause, whilst your deck was
down, Orion contacted me for a meet. Which is it going to be? If one of
you would explain it, I would appreciate it.]<<<<<

>>>>>[No probs. As you know by now, Orion was planning to pick you up.
With my comp troubles, I delegated the whole mess to him. Things were a bit
confused there, so sorry for any confusion on your part. I look forward to
meeting you soon.]<<<<<
