I've requested the Writing of Arabic Numerals through OhioLink, which means I won't be getting it for at least a week, maybe more. I'll let you all know what I find, if I find it in time...

Lol no biggie.

I wasn't looking forward to scanning through 452 pages of a 50 year old book, trying to find that darn symbol.

Enjoy heh.

Totally Nereus, pull that water gun man! Pop a splat on these fools! Anywho I'm asking JC about "His" reality in a playing along kinda way. I simply asked him how "kerry" was doing in the whitehouse and how the war in iraq was going...if it's a close enough correlation to our "reality" than finding info won't be a problem

He didn't seem terribly please to be answering stupid questions, but it was worth it: some interesting facts about how things got different.

Satire

Folks, I'm not really clear on where the disconnect between the players and the PM is. The PM has made it abundantly clear that JC is not just pulling our leg, and actually lives in this fictional timeline. It does not accomplish anything to irritate the character by repeatedly trying to convince him that he is wrong. He is not wrong. That's where he lives. It's part of the game.

More importantly: you will not convince him he is wrong. I'm confident that you have all read a book where the characters are in a world with a different government, or a corporation produces a product that doesn't exist. We take it as a given that these things are true for the characters. We don't get worked up over the fact that Wackycola.com doesn't work in our web browser while Pepsicola.com does. If we ever had the opportunity to talk to characters from those novels it wouldn't be in our best interest to try to convince them that Wackycola isn't real. They're not real, either.

JC has made it clear from the first conversation that he thinks the players are playing a prank on him, and that he knows John Kerry is the president. Take the hint: he gave you an "out." Laugh it off, tell him you were joking, and move on with the game.

I agree with Satire.

If the PM does want the idea of two different realities to be important IG, he'll make sure it comes up.
