Consider that a "Yes, go ahead."

Oh, and if you need any other helpy-type stuff for your site, feel free to ask.

Edit: Is the site up now? What's the URL?

 

[Skade]

Rock.

One of these days, when we get our articles done, I'll send you the 2028 stuff. You might like it. Not cyberpunk. Biopunk. The biggest reason I have not pursued it is because of real world concerns over cloning and genetic modifications. I don't want to offend anyone.

Not up. I don't want to put it up, until I am done with enough to be worthwhile. At one point Hellhound offered to host it at dreadgazebo if it turns out well. So far, I am holding back though.

Impossible. Rest assured that you are offending lots of people right now just because of where you live. Believe me on that one, I've been to some of those places.

But as far as genetic engineering goes, well, that's the great thing about sci-fi. It's a proven safe-ground for comments on society and life in general. Look at the Twilight Zone. If they covered even half the things the more serious episodes did in a modern day setting, there would have been an uproar. As it was sci-fi, however, they were safe.

Remember, you always have the "another place, another time" excuse going for ya'

Wow. That may have been my first rant...was that a rant?

I think that was too coherent, and ultimatly uplifting to be a rant, but I'll give you credit. this time.

Best thing about 2028- its set in Houston! You'd be surprised how many genetic research labs are in Houston.

Hey, did we lose EK somewhere along the way?

Oh Skade, what are you doing this weekend? Everyone on this article may want to get together in a chat or something to figure out how we're doing this. Not much time left, and I'd like to get the ideas organized.

sheesh, this month is heading to a close quick, especially since the last weekend I will be in Houston.

I have a game both nights. Nothing during the day, and I usually end by 2 am our time. Actually, maldur and I have about 6 pages worth of stuff, pre edit and fleshing. We would have to compare it with your stuff to make it cogent.

 

[UnDfind]

Works for me. E-mail a time and place (non AOL), and we can do this. By then there will be a lot more typed up.

 

[Skade]

OK, tomorrow I should be sending you and Maldur an email with what he and I have so far, with some added details, in a draft form. On that I will ask him for an approximate time.

What messenger do you use?
I use MSN mostly.

Back for a sec

Seems like a plan! (I think you mean the steampunk ideas) We could ask, fex, H, DG and EK. And Skade offcource!
