>>>>>[While I was priviliged to watch the raid upon Mr. Frypp's system by
Ms.
Flute from a completely neutral vantage point, I was most upset to hear about
her injuries within the Farrleton Machinery system. However, even in my greif,
I cannot understand the response by many people here. CEO's of Corporations
involving themselves in the life of a single, skilled but otherwise
inconsequential decker? I do not mean to berate the injured child, but such
an overwhelming response is hardly warranted. She lives, and she has been
humbled in a manner that she will always remember, if she, hopefully, recovers.
And this is a good thing. It will teach her to be more paranoid and has,
undoubtedly, shattered her nievety. Alas, her childhood has ended, and
paradise is lost, but it should keep her alive when otherwise she would die.

While I will neither help nor hinder any attempt upon Farrleton Machinery,
I believe that it would interest you to know that Maxim Arms has some interest
in the corporation. They removed all accessable files from the Matrix prior
to my attempt to retrieve them, so I can do nothing but include the small log
where the name was mentioned

+++++Include Decrypted Maxim Internal Log, Avatar to Velli+++++

Perhaps I have had my blood cooled by numerous close passes of the Grim
Reaper's scythe, but if Flute shall die, so be it. Nothing you do to
Farrleton or Regelia will change that now. The only thing you can do is hope
that the doctors and healers attending to Flute are skilled, and then when she
recovers to teach her so that she never commits the same errors
again.]<<<<<
