>>>>>[ Fresh in from the bug infested land of chicago. God almighty what a
mess that CZ was. Sheesh a troll cant even get a good nites sleep with all the buzzing
around. An occasional cannon shot or burst of ammo will quiet them pretty quick though.
Is there anyone else that got caught in this mess? I'd love to talk about the old times in
the CZ}<<<<<<

>>>>>[What? The bugs are still there?

I thought Ares had gotten rid of them? You know what this means don't you? It
means they're free to get out and get anywhere because nobody's keeping them
in Chicago!

I had friends in Chicago, they told me about what they'd seen.. and now it's
coming here?

Oh.. wait a second.

That post's a year old. Weird. Wonder how long it's been circling the 'trix
for?

And hey Dark Stranger! I know it was you who fried my deck last time. That
cost me a lotta cred! You owe me buster! I've got a good lawyer that owes me
a favor, so pay up, or I'll sue!]<<<<<

started -
noone told us.

Yeah, there's interest to talk 'the old times'. As there are still some places where
insect spirits are located, we'd be especially interested in your... techniques
avoiding, and fighting the bugs. As we all know gunfire is just partially effective
against this threat, and we are just now reviewing (inofficially, of course :-) a
government "how to" on bugs...

Right now there's a cancer within human society we try to help to remove, but
after then, a meet in either Seattle (where we are now) or near Chicago (where
we will most probably be heading to) would be welcome. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ No, Kneejerk, no need to worry. Our beloved, good, and clean-as-
very-
clean-stuff-gets great North-American Megacorp told us they single-handedly
squashed all bugs in Chicago. They used an astral disease to kill any astral
presence in the CZ, and any Ghoul (who are on the astral all the time as well as
the "physical" plane) can tell you how hard it is to live through that virus.

And fortunately, all the bugs were contained in Chicago, so the threat is over -
what a lucky coincidence, as Ares was just gettng problems financing their
presence along the CZ, and needed their army, oh, sorry, their corporate security
forces, elsewhere.

See, Kneejerk, there's no reason to worry. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[Well, Kneejerk, how good to see you again.

How could I have burned your deck? I may have a datajack, but I'm a
magician. Me no habla Matrix...

And please, try to sue me. Sue someone that technically doesn't exist. If
you can somehow snag my real name and SIN, maybe I would fear you. Until
then, as they say, frag off and die. I have more important things to deal
with.]<<<<<
