Intergalactic Summit

Does sound like a failed cloning, on the plus side her reflexive skills should be more or less intact.

Hope your alright in the end. You said your current clone just got activated right? Hopefully it all comes back to ya in time.

but in a case like that would they auto-terminate the clone? Its a little wierd...

True, but I would think they'd screen out people like that in the application process for the job. At this point it wouldn't surprise me though...

your Cabin library should have the basic standard Ishukone manual set, though jacking in to pod is pretty straightforward these days.

There were no backups or anything? Or are they corrupted too? If that is the case then I'd suggest looking at your past that you can find and try to piece it together, also try to get in contact with your old contacts and see if they can help you piece your life back together. As far as tech manuals, I believe Rictor is right. Im assuming a lot has changed since you last flew so looking at Isis might be a good idea to get reaquainted to everything. If you really are lost on everything feel free to ask me any questions, I really don't know if I would be all that helpful but ya never know.If not, at least I can help you find the answer.

Well, you said you had connectors in the back of your neck, people aren't born with plug holes in the back of their neck. Its pretty clear you physically can connect to a pod, why not try and see? And yes really trust is a rare commodity, don't waste it.

Oh, you need an expert in brain management, because you feel a bit wary about plugging your brain into stuff that you're not entirely sure about ?

Well, lucky for you, that I happen to know all sorts of people, several of which are also capsuleers, and enjoy plugging strange devices into their brain, for Science Purposes, of course.

Why, several of them, their entire IGS career apparently consists of announcing, "HEY! Listen! Hey, guys, I found some weird alien technology, I don't know what any of it does, but I'm going to plug it into my brain!", to which the majority of commentators will respond "Don't plug it into your brain", then the plug-obsessed maniac says "TOO LATE!", and subsequently has another mental breakdown, as the alien technology attacks their fragile psyche with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer on a walnut. Then a short time later, the plugee is revived from a backup clone and announces "It's alright, I'm not dead!" and says they've found MORE SCIENCE from the escapade, which is fortunate, because they've found ANOTHER alien device, which looks like it could be plugged into a brain. WAHEY!

Don't plug strange devices that you found in mysterious shipwrecks, into your brain.

It astounds me, that people who are normally quite reasonable about not eating the contents of cans of what might be food, found in shipwrecks, at least, not without testing the contents first, show much more concern about their intestines, than they do with their brains.

Picking up random ancient implants, or possible Jovian devices, or Sleeper doodads, or Rogue Drone wibblies, and blammo, right into the brain, without even the slightest bit of testing first.

Makes you think, doesn't it ? Well, it makes me think, anyway. Can't say it makes those plugees think, given their recklessness. Although it's possible that one of these weird alien devices might actually make them think, after they've rammed it into their brain.

Anyway. Brains. You need someone to test your brain ?

Uh....... don't stick random things you find in space in your head, the pod in your captains quarters.... not so much of a worry..... ya.....

Well, I wasn't referring to myself. I'm not a brainologist.

But I do know some people who are, such as my cousin, Dr. Valerie Valate. The other one. The medical doctor. I'm the archaeologist. The other one is the medical doctor.

Or you might even consider talking to Synthia, as she co-wrote that paper on Sebiestor Brains. Of course, you're not a Sebiestor.

There are some others.

And also a lot of people who'll do strange things. Like that wingnut who was dissecting live human brains, in order to "look for where consciousness is formed", or whatever silliness that was.

And those other crackpots.

Come to think of it, almost all the "scientists" on the IGS, tend towards the plugging-alien-technology-into-my-brain-to-see-what-it-does side of things, and hardly any actually bother with the slightest safety measures.

Down with one or other of these sorts of thing.
