>>>>>[ Well, the toast seems to be clearing up for now atleast, but I have
a
feeling that there maybe a relapse with a next generation in the toast and
toaster frames. The first ones where really not that bad, it just that they
were so strange and comical that you forgot that they could be dangerous. I
think it did most of us a favor in showing us that we shouldn't get so cocky.


What really worries me is Talky's code, as you know it contains fragments of
both Monica's and Rufus's AI code along with templates of Cherok(Splut) and
Uplink, both who were absorbed during Core wars. The last part of the code and
the most driving force seems to be the Toaster persona Talky, although the new
appearance of a Hal voice is interesting, I believe that it comes from the
channel 13 broadcast of 2001 the night before Talky got screwed up.


I tend to be acting as background support in this since most of friends would
have my head for risking me and my children to be on some matrix jaunt.
Oh yes, please do hurt Talky too much, CRUSH really does like him and I don't
really relish seeing my husband mope around for a few weeks.


Lastly, CRUSH and I would like a piece of Dante, although I won't be doing much
matrix combat wise, I still have lots of matrix and other skills that will be
helpful. CRUSH has said, and I quote "CRUSH squeeze head like zit", so you can
see that he is rather angry at him also. Well its time to get back to work,
Kichanski and I have a few ideas that we have been working on that might solve
the physical problems of Talky.]<<<<<
