Subj: Perhaps you should type faster - according to Relativity things get shorter if you move faster.

Reply Subj: I think they're getting longer. They feel to be getting longer.

Quote:

Good point. Then again, the Shoggoth may be simplifying for the agitated human. Or lying.

Quote:

Perhaps you might want to elucidate on why the SHoggoth actually doesn't resurrect others as he has Ebony.

If I get some time I'll put something together - work is not especially good at the moment, alas (2 hours each way before I start on the job!)

Quote:

In the meantime, do you still have the Caphan links page around? Al B. was asking after it in his thread below.

The site itself is gone, but I do have the backed up pages - I'll add them to the thread in a min...

EDIT: Nope - I don't have a links page per se - just a set of summaries that I can't attach as a zip file.

As is always the case with my writing, please feel free to comment. I welcome both positive and negative criticism of my work, although I cannot promise to enjoy the negative.

        Then thuddy had better make himself comfortable. · HH · Mon Jan 25, 2016 at 08:44:14 am EST

        Postcode or convict number? · HH couldn't resist. He is horrible. · Thu Jan 28, 2016 at 03:43:59 pm EST
        
        Nah, that's Coromandel 2 153 78957 1449167 2509. Convict numbers are complicated. · Al B. Harper Wears it with pride. · Fri Jan 29, 2016 at 04:21:10 am EST
        
        Coromandel is a great character name. Noted. · HH · Fri Jan 29, 2016 at 03:54:20 pm EST
        
        It is isn't it? After the Coromandel Coast, so good for a southern Indian or Sri Lankan character perhaps. · Al B. Harper · Fri Jan 29, 2016 at 09:10:57 pm EST
        
        Possibly related the the Chola Tamil Dynasty, descended from one of the "Three Crowned Kings". · HH · Sat Jan 30, 2016 at 07:22:06 am EST

- After excessive bookkeeping, I tend to prefer a nice nap. Actually, that usually goes for during the bookkeeping. · Visionary believes in being well-rested when letting things sort themselves out. · Wed Jan 20, 2016 at 02:08:55 pm EST
  - Isn't 'excessive bookkeeping' a tautology? · HH · Thu Jan 21, 2016 at 02:12:03 am EST
    - I suppose that a librarian might argue that. · Visionary · Thu Jan 21, 2016 at 01:30:52 pm EST
      - Ah, he's dead. · HH · Fri Jan 22, 2016 at 01:00:52 am EST
        
        They say that about print in general. · Visionary · Fri Jan 22, 2016 at 11:47:24 am EST
        
        Print book sales actually rose by 3% last year. · HH · Fri Jan 22, 2016 at 03:32:26 pm EST
        
        Really? Time to reinvest in paper then! · Visionary · Fri Jan 22, 2016 at 10:52:12 pm EST
        
        At the same time, predictions of increase in the e-book market proved over-optomistic · HH suspects there my be a saturation point of kindle users · Sat Jan 23, 2016 at 09:16:42 am EST
        
        Still, my mother started reading ebooks, which I feel must represent some kind of tipping point... · Visionary · Mon Jan 25, 2016 at 01:23:38 am EST
        
        The end times? · HH · Mon Jan 25, 2016 at 09:48:10 am EST
        
        I think once she doesn't need to call me to ask me how to do something on her tablet we'll have a better understanding of how close we are. · Visionary · Tue Jan 26, 2016 at 01:52:45 pm EST
        
        On the other hands, she did push you through her birth canal. That has to have been inconvenient for her. · HH spoent an hour supporting his septegenarian cousin through getting kindle on her tablet recently. · Wed Jan 27, 2016 at 02:08:06 am EST
        
        True, but to be fair I've bought her more than 40 nice greeting cards thanking her for that. · Visionary · Thu Jan 28, 2016 at 03:12:08 pm EST
        
        Jumping in because I can · Al B. Harper · Fri Jan 29, 2016 at 04:33:18 am EST
        
        Looking before leaping? · HH · Fri Jan 29, 2016 at 04:06:45 pm EST
        
        Plunging in blind! · Al B. Harper · Fri Jan 29, 2016 at 09:19:36 pm EST
        
        Eyes shut is different to blind. · HH · Sat Jan 30, 2016 at 07:24:07 am EST
        
        Same result, however. Unless you are the Daredevil. · Al B. Harper · Tue Feb 02, 2016 at 06:01:43 am EST
        
        She must be so proud · HH · Thu Jan 28, 2016 at 07:29:40 pm EST
        
        And, for no other reason than I found it while hunting GNS material, here is a link to Paris in December by Dancer · HH really liked this one · Wed Jan 27, 2016 at 02:42:15 am EST
        
        That is a very special story indeed... · Visionary · Thu Jan 28, 2016 at 12:46:54 am EST
