Hi Russell. I am one of the webmasters for Zustwo Robotics and we are
currently working on a full site to debut soon. We have some amazing
products that will be available in the near FUTURE, hopefully you
think our site will be just as amazing.

I will write you back when we get close to launch.

 		Hmm... ok then.

Sorry, I should've phrased what I wrote better. It isn't that I would mind reading the comic -- I surely can find a few moments throughout my day to do that, it'd be fine. But I just don't want to run around looking for the comic and stuff, etc. Ah well. Annoying or not, I'd probably end up doing it though.

 		Well I will be damned kittens will be damned if "FUTURE" isn't a clue of some sort. But I dunno. This seems interesting, and they seem to know we're watching... So whatdya say,
puppet webmasters? Is this a game or what?
Give us a sign oh holy ones....


AND ps, HKDL......... ouch. But I wouldn't call it a meltdown yet.... more like a brownout.... :cough: transfer of power :cough:

 		Hmm... These people are pushy in their emails, really, or at least redundant. They tell us twice in the same email that their stuff is 'amazing' and in the first one they give us their web page address three times, even though we clearly already have it.... o.O And don't forget, things will happen in the near 'FUTURE'... So I'm going to have to agree with Duckie and say that its a clue of some sort. Well, the 'FUTURE' thing at least. Not really sure what sort, though.

Hi Duckie. I don't have the answer to your question why we are named
Zustwo so I will forward your email to someone in the PR dept. They
are also very busy at the moment however, getting ready for some huge
announcements we have to make in the very near FUTURE. I will make
sure to let them know to email you when our site goes live. Although I
am sure it will make the news. Almost everything we do lately does.

 		Hmm... Ok, so apparently we'll -- well, Duckie will -- be getting a reply about their weird company name. 'Zustwo' isn't exactly catchy. I can imagine the hell their PR department is going through now, trying to come up with a jingle...

"Zustwo, Zustwo... wait, now, what rhymes with Zustwo? Toe, Moe, Poe, throw, blow, snow... Err... 'Zustwo, Zustwo....' F*** this! I'm quitting!"

Hmm... I'll look into the Robert Frost poems. You're right, he did write gazillions of them. But the ONLY two that people EVER seem to recite (you know, 5th grade, you had to memorize your poem and blah blah... okay, maybe not, but... we did, so... nyeh!) were 'Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening' and 'The Road Less Traveled'. And EVERYONE makes such a big deal over 'Tiger, Tiger'. I personally prefer Tennyson. But I adore Poe's 'The Raven'. Its so beautiful... '... as each dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor...' That, and 'the night's Plutonian shore' and 'the rustling of each purple curtain' and the 'pallid bust of Pallas' always stay with me...

Ahem! I apologise for the BLATANT off-topicy-ness there. I'll go look into Frost now, tell you guys what I find.
~Moss, as always

Hmm... guess so. Should we call....? *slinks off to look at the wikipedia page dedicated to Frost*
~Mossy, as odd as usual

Edited for a quick PS-
Thanks for telling them about the FUTURE repetitive-ness thingy, Sarah. Smile

 		Aaaah... I was wondering where Frost was coming into this... But I figured I had just been innatentive. Heh. Hooray! No more Frost reading... o.O

Oh, and, an idea-

Let the games begin.

2100-Coming Late Summer 2005 from Ronin Studios with HUGE promotions at Wizard World Chicago...


Err... think that 'HUGE' has anything to do with 'FUTURE'? Just an idea.

 		I sent an e-mail a long time ago saying that I was listening and I got an e-mail today from Alexander Price saying...

Hey I just wanted to drop a line to let you know that the Zustwo
robotics thing is related to a comic book called 2100 which will be
out next year. Keep your eyes and ears open, the clues will be
EVERYWHERE.


Looks like something may come of this, but it's still hard to say.
