I think my definiton of 'sic' may be skew . . . I took what I read to be that the letter writer was using "Mr. Kiteway" because it fit the context, but that it acknowledges that the noun may go by another name to other people. It seemed weird is all. We had Spec about S = Sente, and who knows whether that is true - it just seemed extra, so I thought it was important.

One thing though, perhaps "Sente" is another name for "master of the academy," much like cleric can loosely be interpreted as pastor, aka church-guy.

Personally, I think time travel is happening all over the place for Academy researchers, and that S Marchant is also Sente, but it;s the name he had in another time.

I'll trade my Spec for 70 Leck.

Speaking of that horrid 24 digit number-- has anyone finished converting it to base 3 yet? I started, but couldn't find a program to do it, and honestly, was doing it freehand to kill some time at work-- then got busy so didn't finish.... and realized even if I got a string of 0, 1, and 2's I didn't know what do do with it anyway.

I'm still amazed at the quantity of sushi and eel and cucumber roll refernces. Or was it just the PM was writing the "Futures" over lunch?

lol

here's a silly bit of spec. Both the pictures used to illustrate the top stories in the Sentinel have been cartoons. Are we dealing with some strange cartoon alternate reality? Why don't people in Perplex City use/take photographs?

Up until a few years ago at least the Wall Street Journal didn't use photos (or even color) on the front page. So it's unusual to not use photos, but not unheard of.

don't remove the pennames. a good pm would possibly incorporate them. simply mention that they are pen names of unfiction people. no sweat. as for the cartoons, for sente, who knows, but for corrola, a lot of courtrooms dont allow cameras. so proffesional artists make drawings of the scenes. you see it a lot at high profile trials where cameras were banned.
