Subject: Doom (via Hangtime) to Brandywine...

>>>>>[ Hey, out there! I need to make contact with Brandywine. I've got a
message from Doom...(still can't figure out how it got there, though)...in a
little note (Doom called it an addendum) attached to it, he said that he
realized as he was leaving you needed to talk with him (considerably abridged
from the way he worded it). So here goes:

_______________________________________________________________________________
<<ENCRYPTION PROTOCOL ESTABLISHED>>

My dear Fraulein Brandywine:

I extend to you my most sincere apologies regarding my abrupt departure
and my callous disregard for your feelings in permitting myself to forget your
request that we converse regarding some "business", as you termed it. I am, as
ever, interested in assisting in any way possible; in line with this, I may be
able to orchestrate a method of contacting you even during my stay "in the
shadows". My latitude of action has not been abbreviated merely because I am
underground, and I shall "be in touch" soon.

Sincerely yours,

Doctor Doom

<<ENCRYPTION PROTOCOL DISCONTINUED>>

And that's it, ma'am. Ooops! Doom told me to call you "My Lady", and I'm sure
he'll be able to find out if I didn't. So, there you are, My Lady. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Well, I don't know about that, but I've got a question, Hangtime:
What's with the Icon? Where did you get the idea? I mean, a circular red dot
with arms & legs with sneakers, gloves, and shades isn't something you see
everyday. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Oh, THAT? That's easy. It's from an advertising campaign from
waaaaay
back for the Dr Pepper 7-UP Corporation. They created this little computer
generated image they called "The Spot" (actually, there were lots of 'em) which
appeared in all thier advertisements for a while. ]<<<<<

Especially the MUSIC! ]<<<<<
