Wavecrest was the one who informed me of my obliviousness in that matter.

I hate spin doctoring don't you? Let's indulge ourselves a little: "The twenty-first century cityscape of light, metal, and glass that is Deus City was in the distance beyond the trees and grass of the "Mercer Club" golf course. A sparkling white golf ball sat in a sand bunker a few feet away from the short grass of the green where a red flag marked the eighteenth hole cup. The smiling, red haired man in his thirties was wearing an ostentatious red golfing outfit and hat. He was a handsome man, walking alone, pulling his large-wheeled golf bag behind him down into the sand bunker. He had a handheld PDA in his free hand, which due to an extravagant overuse of technology was indicating the ball's position on the course. Thunder rumbled in the distance as he sat his bag upright, and touched the electronic wonder. It emitted a happy digital chitter and on the two-inch screen a friendly-looking animated digital caddy program appeared. The smiling virtual caddy intoned its advice in a tinny happy voice as a cartoon bubble emerged from his digital mouth with the same words: "Sand Trap. 18th Hole 15.75 feet away. Pitching wedge recommended sir!" The man slid the data pad into his breast pocket then withdrew a club from the upright bag. He glanced to the sky in irritation as a rumble of thunder echoed across the green, then cleared his throat and set up his final shot. At the apex of his swing Lightning struck. His scream was a horrible chilling yell which died into a muted gurgle. He fell over dead in the sand, cooked and smoking, his data pad slid out of his pocket and flopped into the sand. Steam rose from the charred dead man. There was a moment of nothing. Then, a shadow fell over the dead man as heavy, fat drops of rain plop, plop, plopped onto the sand beside him making tiny craters in the smooth sand. The rain quickly became a torrential downpour. The shadow grew larger and everything around became darker. The smiling animated caddy on the data pad read "Error" - just one of the many things in Deus City about to die." Yea that's better... With love, Your friendly neighborhood "God-Killer" (and now back to your regularly scheduled propaganda.)

 		Does anyone else get the vibe from "yea, that's better" that the God Killer is just saying that what they've said about the incident is just a version that would make the community feel safer. I mean, I am brand new to this so I could be totally wrong, but isn't the God Killers MO killing people and making it look like an act of god. I mean in the news article where it talks about Mercer dying, it even quotes it as an "act of god."

Just saying.

 		Well, all he's doing is continueing the spin that Culturecorp put out. He's saying it's spin, in a way mocking us. He killed Mercer, and is joking around by telling us the story we're supposed to believe. Re-read the first line
