We'll see how long that lasts. . .

Well, I went to the Piggly Wiggly node. Feeble Green node, with ports
accessing various offices and workstations. There was also a hidden
passage I spotted. I followed it into a tougher Green node, with
a couple of datastores attached. But the datastores looked bogus; they
all had the same information, shifted around. It was as if someone had
set each record to randomly select from the same set of values. Too
many files were similar to be coincidence.

I looked around and found another secret connection. I followed it
to a massive Red node with Trace and Burn. I sleaze it, and scouted the
next connection--a blue node. I dropped my MPCP and went there.

Eventually, after maneuvering through this maze of hi/low nodes, I
found a research datastore. There were records of brainwave patterns,
neurochemistry, and the results of several bioware tests, both on
animals and humans.

I went to a private workstation, and met old Kim himself. I can't
really fight, so I raced out--but they'd switched routing on me! I
had to find a new way out of the system. He cornered me in an Orange
node. . .I pulled the plug right as his sword went for my captain's
head.

Something is definitely not right up there. I'm busy here--I can deck
LD, but can't leave town. If anyone wants to meet Belle and Mind
Throttle, I think we could set up a run on this place. . .of course,
the more people, the greater the chance for detection.]<<<<<
