>>>>>[Well, that wasn't too difficult, Jacamus. A couple severed wires
to patch back together. BTW, nice scars you got with that one, too bad
about the tatoo... Sorry i couldn't stay to take a closer look at the
deck, i'll stop by tomorrow, when i can spend some time with it. And if
you need any decking help, i should be finished with my current job
tonight (look for the post tomorrow!), so i will be available. A little
solo work will be good for me, working with that Jimi Smooth has been
stressful. Til tomorrow, then.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Glad I caught you before you left the hospital, Jacamus. I wish
you had told me. Anyway, i've checked the interface, and the problem is
in the chip. There is a small crack in it. From getting banged around
or poor quality i don't know. Instead of just interupting the current,
it is acting as a capacitor, building up charge, and then discharging
when it can't hold any more. This discharge gives the ghost images.
Smaller ones will just give a flacker or quick image, but with more dis-
charges, the crack gets bigger, can hold more charge, and has larger
effects when it discharges. With the bigger discharges, you can get
full images that can last several seconds. I will have to replace the
chip completely. I have the parameters from the old chip, and i will
get the new one to you as soon a i can.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Herr Frypp, i have just reading a message that indicates you are
wanting to free Jacamus. While i am not really interesting in a physical
run, i could helps with some Matrix work, or as a medic for you. Jacamus
will probably needing medical help after. I could also fix the chip, if
the one i have fits. The nuyen i was mentioned earlyer is not really
interesting for me, i have recently received a large donation from another
source. It was just that the chip i found is almost useless unless it can
be modified to fit for Jacamus. If you are interesting in my services for
Matrix or medic, send me a private message.]<<<<<

>>>>>[ I am just posting this to let you know that Vilya is heading
your way (I believe you said Barbados) well, never mind where.

Just though I should drop you a warning though: Vilya has been greatly
changed by the ordeal and has lost a great part of its humanity in the
process. ]<<<<<
