Current Technology: can't live with it; can't live without it. Trying to make a Powerpoint presentation for Volcanology tomorrow morning, and Office 365 Powerpoint keeps crashing. RIP

Leaving for a 9 day Geology Field Camp. I will be offline until I get back on the 28th, but I may not get to catching up with stuff I missed until the 29th. See y'all in a few days.

Going dark for a few days. I have a major project for Paleontology due Tuesday morning, and I'm nowhere near done with it, so I'll be away until I get that done. See y'all in a few days.

With the semester now over, I should be able to throw up another post fairly soon. Expect something maybe tomorrow or Monday.
Well, glad you're feeling better now. Take care of yourself, man.
@KaiserElectric You and me both. Finals next week, and then FREEDOM! For about a month and a half-ish. Then it's back to school for another semester-o-fun.
"A few things, and I'm looking to see if there's anything else that might be of interest," Valanx responded to the captain's query as he removed another panel from the side of the pod. He paused in his work, walking over to the computer that Ray had just unlocked to look at what information the hard drive might contain as he explained what he had found so far. "The most obvious thing was a strange powder coating all the boards and wires. I've put it in the analyzer, but I haven't checked the results yet." He wheeled his chair across the room to another computer to see what the analyzer had found out about the strange powder as he continued talking. "Another troubling thing was that this was clearly some sort of amateur work. The hard drive had two soldered wires connected to it. One connected to the motherboard, and the other connected to a canister with some sort of sleeping gas. I'll run an analysis on it once we're done with the rest of this stuff. I have a theory on what's going on here, and it's not a good one. I think this is all part of some black market operation. I'll run the serial numbers of the components to see where they come from and whether or not they were stolen to be sure. Whatever's going on, something's not right with all this." He turned to look at the computer readout on the components of the white powder, after which he would wheel back to the other computer to start looking at the manifest and any other important or interesting information that the cryo-pod's hard drive might contain.

Present, but very busy at the moment. Hopefully things will slow down a bit soon, but it's that time of the semester, so we'll see what happens.
While Isaac was as hungry as ever, his mind was too filled with questions to concentrate much on eating. He offered fully half of the food on his plate to Athena along with a short prayer for wisdom and guidance, then sat down with the rest of his half-siblings, many of them talking excitedly about the mysterious prophecy and trying to decipher its meaning. They threw a number of questions Isaac's way since he had been chosen to take part in this quest, but Isaac would only answer with noncommittal monosyllables, too absorbed in his own thoughts to take part in the conversation around him. He tried to fit together everything in the prophecy, but as was so typical with prophecies, most of it was so cryptic that it probably wouldn't make sense until it came to pass. A few things were certain: the defeat of Gaea had woken someone - or something - even worse. The ones with the power to stop it included himself, the newcomer, Syrus, and a few others that Isaac hadn't met yet. Talk of the new moon probably meant one of Artemis's hunters was to take part in the quest, but the Hunters weren't here, which was confusing if one of them was supposed to join them. Luck might refer to Tyche. She had a few kids here, so that would make sense. Two sides of the same coin might refer to Nemesis as she was essentially the antithesis of Tyche, but the rest of it still made no sense to Isaac as he pondered the words. He finally finished his dinner, later than most of the other campers, and headed to the Big House. He showed Redwood the mark on his hand as he entered and headed to the war room. He took a seat around the ping pong table and waited.
@Jojo I know I'm not the GM or Co-GM for this, but I think that sounds pretty interesting.
I think y'all are waiting on Valanx to respond to Ray. I'll try to get to that soon, but I'm kind of busy with a term paper right now (first draft due a week from yesterday). I am alive, though, so I'll have something at some point.
Modified my latest post to reflect some new information.
Very mysterious, but it sounds interesting. I look forward to seeing how this happens.
