    True Connection

    In the background, but not center stage, is fine. Now there is a group with weapons and radios out there, to worry about. I get the feeling the date on the screen will blow his mind and probably ours as well. Great chapter, thank you.

    Scarlet Indemnity

    Now that is what I call one heck of an action packed chapter. I hope the computer access gets them some answers. What a great chapter, thank you.

    Illusive Intent

    I guess she really is a chip off the old block. Carlos I have to figure out. Mira saves the day, what happened to Carlos, where is copy #1 now. Great chapter, thank you.

    Yesterday's Law

    Shay now knows some of what happened. His want or need to know more will spur him on. However it seems like more than a few months have passed, exactly how long has it been. Great chapter, thank you.

    Dreaming No More

    How does a creature turn into a human and now it appears he (Mira) can speak, is skilled and concerned about Shay. Was that dream of a giant sized creature significant. How will the shock of seeing the city in ruins hit him, as reallity now sinks in (we're not in Kansas anymore Toto). Great chapter, thank you.
  6. This is the one article I found about your question. http://blkandred.blogspot.ca/2011/09/progressive-conservatism.html
  7. Unknowingly his ability is pushing those he wants to be closer to away from him. He has learned that causing good things to happen to those around him or those that he works with, ahcieves what he wants without drawing attention to himself. After literally helping to save the world, what could top that. This was a great chapter, thank you very much.
  8. Hamish now knows there are others like him. That there are others working from within against the Reverends. That he has the ability to kill. It would appear that Hamish will go back and hopefully free the others. What a great chapter, thank you.

    Chapter 61

    If not for Grangers' presence, this could well be a British naval history class, given by a teacher who is able to draw his students into the past and experience the battle for themselves, well done Mark. When Granger meets the French Captain, he will be able to say, without lying, that he has met with a French Admiral, had a personal meeting with a French General and two members of the Committee. Met and spoken to Bonaparte and had an audience with the Spanish King (the Collar) and a personal meeting with the Prince of Peace. Or, if all else fails, will his cache of gold do the trick. Great chapter, thank you.
  10. Hmmm, well that didn't get a rise out of anyone. So how about this. A series on 'Hornblower' (youtube). It starts off in 1793. No it's not Granger, but it is somewhat interesting all the same. If you watch it (them) it will fill the waiting time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6qtLWwJq9U
  11. The silence in this forum is a downer. I still don't do song and dance, so I offer you this instead. 'THe Gallant Hours', note it is the opening song that I would like you to hear. However the film itself is a classic and in my opinion one Cagneys' best. The Gallant Hours - YouTube
  12. Saint clare, Feast day is 11th August. Patron of sore eyes and now also of television. Some claim that she was able to cure stomach ailments. It is rumored that she had a pet crow named, of all things Hairy Ricky, believe it or not.
  13. You and I think maybe Ricky to, seem to be suffering from the same ailment. For some reason these bouts seem to have become more frequent since the start of the Odyssey. Now, some home remedies for calming an upset stomach are baking soda, mint leaves, cinnamon and saltine crackers, to name but a few. Of course a good over the counter remedy is Pepto Bismal. To try and reduce the frequency of these episodes a change in diet might be in order. It is generally believed that eating less Crow would be of great benifit to the both of you and your stomachs. Best wishes Sandrewn
  14. When I used to go to the bookstore, often the reason I bought a book was because of what was written on the back dust cover or inside leaf. Your opening chapter did the same. It caught my attention, then pulled me in wanting more. This was a great beginning, I am looking foreward to your next posting, thank you.
  15. " And maybe they salvaged his pipes? " Bless you for your kind thought.

    Chapter 60

    Humphreys gone, he left England in April of 94 as a midshipman, litteraly sailed the seven seas and almost made it home a rich man, in command (acting) of a frigate, so close and yet so far (R.I.P.). Calvert has become the Captian that Granger knew he could be if given a chance. Now he will get all that are left, home (and the treasure of course). Hopefully Eastwyck on his own will succeed or with the help of Calvert showing up. This was grand chapter, thank you Mark.
  17. A post would not be amiss. Even with out THAT answer till Chapter 61. We'll just have to keep some nitro and paddles handy for our faint hearted friend.

    Part 20

    The scale and size of what they are building is mind boggling. Always in the background is that worry of the 'Bad Guys'. We have pilot fish. They now have a fish pilot. Yes, I know Sonic is a mammal, but fish pilot sounds better. Great chapter, thank you.

    Chapter 19

    The Witness delegates meeting with Wirrin shows how far he has come. That Pirramar would be spending so much of his time with Wirrin, shows how important his (Wirrin) imput is to their future. Great chapter, thank you.

    Part18

    WOW, life expectancy 300 Years. Yikes, Sonic might die in 4 years. What a range of emotions. Great chapter, thank you.

    Part 17.

    Blue is Blue, Sonic is Sonic (a unique shock wave spreading out into the universe). To be told that they are well into level 2 was an unexpected, yet not suprising revelation. What is this life extension mentioned? This was a great chapter, thank you.
  22. This has turned into a dead zone again. It was on this day (17 July) that the Czar of All the Russias and his family met their end. The following are other items of interest (to some) with regards to today ( I am not a song and dance sort of guy, so this will have to do). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/July_17
  23. It is seems strange that the boys of his element have all but forgotten him. That none seem to care that he was in actual combat. Is he subconsciously causing it or is Fleet some how doing it. Fleet knows of his past, they observed what he did on the ship, what are they upto, what are they planning? Great chapter, thank you.
  24. One more congatulation is in order, I just noticed that you have gone from 9th to 6th on the T.R.S. list of GA.
  25. I would add my congratulations on the big five. Looking forwards to many more. Of note, today is also 'International Lefthanders' Day'. I don't suppose you might be left handed, Mark? As you might of guessed. I am. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Lefthanders_Day http://www.indiana.edu/~primate/left.html#U.S.%20Presidents As I recall, I screwed up with my Dhow Theory. Now here you go and solve the problem with a mere few rocks, just 15 war canoes (dugouts mayhaps?) and 300 some odd and very restless natives. Well done Mr Arbour. Oh, and btw could you please arrange to save Kingsdales' bagpipes.
