    Anybody know?!? I just checked and saw he hasn't logged in for nearly two years. It doesn't seem that long.

    Jeriko is either completely gone, or working under a very different identity.

    If he is under a very different identity he's doing a damn good job at it.

    I would place actual money on the fact that Darkstryke is not Jeriko.

    Darkstryke can't be Jeriko. Jeriko would kill his computer in fear as soon as he saw this:

    A transporter accident split -Jeriko's tiny brain into several parts and divided it among the zombie bodies of a handful of neocon wingnut posters, providing them with just enough intelligence to give the pretense of being human.

    Except for the one stray splinter that lodged itself in marathon's brain, effectively destroying the "moderate" neurons. The damage was so severe that this formerly intelligent poster was only able to post inane platitudes following the accident.

    At the same time, some of -J's excess testosterone was nano-injected into somebody's uncle, rendering him even more aggressive, but no more coherent, than before.

    Either that or -J's girlfriend exacted revenge for all those ethnic slurs, probably with a sharp object. :calli:

    In a nutshell, this is what makes a good SF writer. Though your plot sounds utterly fantastic, it is immediately believable.

    'Use ubuntu' images are the most fearsome images of all. :lol: ;)

    Don't you have more "books" to go write grandma?

    Look, I realize you can't walk and chew gum at the same time, but grownups are able to do their jobs AND post on message boards simultaneously.

    And, no, you're definitely not -Jeriko. Even his tiny brain was bigger than yours.

    When no one can dispute what I say, but rather only attack it or mock it, I know I'm on the right track :soma:

    Considering how bad most of those abortions ever so loosely called "books" (Probe was a great work :) ) that you write are I'd think you'd want to devote most of your attention to that.

    Dispute it? You'd have to say something first.

    Oh, lookee, he's copying the "I'm not smart enough to debate her, so I'll make stupid remarks about her books" meme popularized by at least a dozen other posters!

    Always open to reader feedback.

    Revised version: Not a sharp object. Probably a rusty chainsaw. Saved her having to buy food for the cats for at least three months. Those standalone freezers are the best.
