>>>>>[Alright, now that I have a little sleep, let me try and reconstruct,
what just went down. Doomsday and I, head out to rescue William, not really
understanding the situation. The scene on the plant, you could say, was like
a firestorm of activity. We immediately ran into some heat, but did a small
fade.

We did a quick re-route and came to apparently the wrong data spigot. We
tracked from there and got to the right one, after attracting some more
guards, got to Wiliam. The strange part is that he was jacked in funny. . .

Doomsday laid down a little distraction, will I did some pitful damage control
on the spigot, so that when I got William out of it. . . It wouldn't blow
sky-hi. Right now it is holding, but I don't suspect it will hold for too
long. Anyway, I then went about getting William out of the spigot. He was as
Doomsday immortally put it, "In fraggin' bad shape, worse than . . ." I'll
let you complete that statement. But needless, to say, he was bad. Very bad.

So then I finally got him out, with a little help from some tools "borrowed"
from a friendly tech, and got him to a friend. He's been seriously damaged,
perhaps even he will die, that I cannot tell. Something, is very screwy with
William's body, which is why this is making it harder for the medicos. I'll
try and keep you posted. By the way, if some deckers could explain, how to
prevent a data spigot from exploding, Doomsday and I will escort you in, make
sure that you can have the time to do the repairs and get you out alive. I am
sure William will be willing to cover the bills. And if he isn't, he might be
after Doomsday, gets to him.]<<<<<
