The TriadCity Adventurer All the News that Causes Fits Readers' Voice What do you think of CrimeNet? "I'm afraid I may be falsely accused. I have been in Ward 6, and do not want to go back! Scoundrels run free, often in public office, while honest men go to jail or the asylum!" ~Gromov "Jolly good show! Salt of the earth! Backbone of England! Give those ruffians the old what for!" ~The Curator of the Museum of Affirmative Action   "My guess is that it will simply provide new opportunities for criminal elements and the politicians who manipulate them. If the resource is uncontrolled from below, that is by the people, it will be exploited from above." ~Chiensha "Any third-level magician worth his training could easily defeat it." ~TelGar Archive: What do you think of the almost-ready subway system? "I'm really, really glad that it is going to be underground. Even though I like being outside all of the time, I would hate to see any trees destroyed to have an above ground system." ~Shirrah "Money spent on a subway in NorthWest is wasted on people who disdain technology and prefer to walk anyway." ~Dewley Elekted   "My concern -- and this is only my personal concern, you must understand -- is that a City-wide system makes it so much easier for undesirable elements to enter places where so much has been achieved to defend against them. For example, those unkempt students, and other NorthWesters." ~The Mayor's Wife "Oh great, now the humans are so thick in the City that they have to ruin the underground. How depressing". ~Marvin     ©2008 SmartMonsters, Inc. All Rights are Reserved "Decades before the invention of the motion picture camera, the prose fiction of the nineteenth century began to experiment with filmic techniques. We can catch glimpses of the coming cinema in Emily Bronte's complex use of flashback, in Dickens' crosscuts between intersecting stories, and in Tolstoy's battlefield panoramas that dissolve into close-up vignettes of a single soldier. Though still bound to the printed page, storytellers were already striving toward juxtapositions that were easier to manage with images than with words." -- Janet H.
