>>>>>[Thank you, but the Ronin just came and got us. We are even now,
and we are free. Only, now we don't really know what to do. We are
17 on July 9. We will be able to have a real party, maybe we can get a
dog now. Better find a place to live first. We first went in the matrix
when we were 5 and the people in the lab gave us a datajack when we were
ten. We think we should learn to ride a motorbike. Don't have much to
trade. We have spent 10 years living in the Reraku matrix system, know
where they keep everything, they have lots of back doors. Renraku coders are
really lazy and not very good. And we brought a cell phone datajack plug
with us. It is a few centimeters cubed and transmits to the phone network.
It just plugs into your datajack or deck, be easy to jam or tap tho.
Not as good a range as a sat uplink but OK in Seattle. Oh but you have to
get the priority phone connections cos you don't want the exchange load
lagging you out in the middle of things. It is all we need to deck cos
we just need us, no matrix deck. We don't have a phone connection tho.
Maybe we should go and hack one up. Spose that is what we do when we
want things now, geee, that means we are gonna be a decker. dunno if we
are happy or scared.
Could you show us round, where to live, eat, have fun, what ever that is.
We have not been outside the facility since we got there. We have been in
this city all our life and we feel like a complete stranger, the rain is
nice. we did not remember rain, we were allways inside the lab when it
rained. yesterday was the first time we canever remember feeling rain.
What games would we play, we have never played a game actually WITH anybody.
Thanks for remembering me]<<<<<
