[The camera is pointed lazily and a bit off-center at Indrani, pinned to her favorite chair by the much too large and ugly dog who has never believed he doesn't fit in laps.]

So running a thought by everyone. Shouldn't we write ourselves up a guide for newcomers? More efficient than everybody just jumping in with their version of important advice. We could print them up and leave them on the ship, plus a few back here for people who run. Which dinosaurs will kill you, where stuff is, where not to go if you don't feel like being shot at. My friend Moira and I made up a whole book like that at home, and it was just the two of us. Seems like this should be easy.

[He nods. He's already starting to imagine layouts]

Much merit in idea.

Seldom sleep. Do however eat and exist in linear time.

[He sniffs. That's really not exactly true on Verdana is it?]

As much as any of us do.

Varying areas of expertise. Give a more complete picture.

Yes. Had much interest?

Centralization would simplify communication. Imagine limits programming diversity. Undesirable.

Loss of art overlooked tragedy of war. Important cultural touchstone.

That's actually not a bad idea.

It'd cut down on the confused people looking to the network for help, too.

[personal profile] girlworthfighting 2014-08-25 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Hopefully people wouldn't end up arguing or not over what is important to know.

But other than that, yes. I can see that this would be very useful.
girlworthfighting: (can it be)

[personal profile] girlworthfighting 2014-08-26 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
You don't think that might prove overwhelming for any newcomer?

[I mean, she assumes you're joking, Indrani. But still.]

[personal profile] girlworthfighting 2014-08-27 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
We can be a little discordant but I don't know if I would go that far.

Maybe not just your home, admittedly. There are other lawless realms.

It might be pretty long, if you want everyone to sign off on it.

I don't think pamphlets can have those. [Tiny smile, then back to serious.] I think we should be considering more than just what to tell them, though.

We need to be able to organize a militia on the fly.

[personal profile] genoshas_general 2014-09-04 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'm -- well, there are a number of things we might need one for. I'll admit I'm partial to them, though.
genoshas_general: (Default)

[personal profile] genoshas_general 2014-09-07 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
I have. I know there are problems inherent with that sort of thing, though. That's why I said we need to be ready, in case we face bigger ones. There's no need to do anything in haste.
