I've spent countless hours reading hives before toddling off to bed.
Don't we all?

I do seem to get sigged a fair deal. Whatever happened to Aeson? He's one. Aurora's AWOL, she's another. I think Rev had a frogman quote for a while too, but he changes his a lot.
That one almost sounds dirty taken out of context. . . which probably makes it better.

I think that a lot of people in the early nineties claimed to be hackers. Having the appropriate skills and knowledge is one thing, having ever actually done anything with that information is entirely another matter.Saw it several times. I knew someone who loved the movie and told me she used to be a hacker. I always wondered if that was true or part of a back story she made up....
I reread a fair ways back in THE hive thread, the 30,000 odd post one, but none of the earlier stuff. It was just too different, I didn't recognize any of the people.Are there any hivers obsessed with rereading old hives? I've done that too. I just got a new printer. I'm thinking about making the Codex real.
Then of course there are the people who'll just make up anything. I went to school with some weirdos.

I think the main problem with printing an archive would be that the threads aren't exactly in a very printer friendly format. Plus you loose a little with the passing of time. Every reference to Fru would be completely lost on someone who only knew Rev, and such forth. I think ultimately the Hive has to be lived through as a transitory experience.
The whole situation was odd and would make a great teenaged romantic comedy. However sometimes when I think back and look at all those possible lies that were told and think of the game she was playing, I shutter.
I live secure in the knowledge that nobody will ever want to make a movie out of my life. It maybe be boring in general, but "may you live in interesting times" isn't a blessing.The whole situation was odd and would make a great teenaged romantic comedy.
