Guys, if any of you are still around, there's absolutely tons of activity down south again. It's been whompin' steady since yesterday: 9:20, 10:42, 12:03, 13:16....and Random, texel and I are thinking of heading back down to check it out. Another road trip, anyone?


Beth's log shows times that match stuff like that...

Quote:
09:22 Unbelievable! By climate system he meant the climate! He has stopped the wind. The weather this morning was cold with a very light rain/snow mix and a bitter wind. The wind has stopped, it has now been just over a minute. The laptop appeared to struggle just prior to the wind stopping. There must be a minor interference. So, he is drawing too much power (?) and is able to control the weather. Unreal.

10:51 This second test was very interesting. In an area that I would judge to be a 12 foot square, nothing would stop moving. Things were slipping as though they were on ice. When the reached the edge of the square, if the momentum wasn't great enough to take them over the edge (where they would come to an immediate stop), they would slid right along the 'edge'. It's as if friction was removed. The effect lasted for about 2 minutes before returning to normal. This leads me to believe that whatever abilities he has over nature are temporary. Does he have any long term effects? What would be the purpose of an AI that could make temporary changes to small areas?

12:18 Made lunch and we decided to use the time to test his affect on the olfactory system. Midway through a meal of hotdogs and potato chips, I suddenly lost all ability to smell or taste. The only eating experience was textural. It was very odd, as if I had a horrible cold. The effect lasted longer, at first I believed that it was because I was no longer enjoying my lunch. However the clock confirmed that it lasted about 7 minutes. Is he more effective when it comes to sensory issues? Should we test other senses? Do I want to be a guinea pig? What am I dealing with here?

14:01 Needed to exercise Laika so we went on a walk. Arrived to a clearing with a small abandoned shack. While Laika ran around in the clearing, the shack suddenly became very distorted. I asked him if it was my perception or if it was the shack itself. He replied with a cryptic answer of how everything is as it is perceived. Had he not just taken away my sense of taste or smell, I would have believed that it was the shack itself. Now I'm wondering if it was my eyes. If he wants my help with this, he should be more clear on what he's doing. Right now I feel as if I'm an observer and not on some scientific voyage of discovery. Perhaps Phil would be able to help me. I wish that he had come.


They match if you add in time it took her to post...

 		K... I'm freaked out by Brutus.mic...

Move this discussion over to the Brutus files?

[edit] I'm doing a lot of editing today, huh? Nice match, Monki! Beat me to it by a refresh! Very Happy

 		The audio in the quicktime movie file is a dog barking if you speed it up enough. Just thought I'd mention it...
