Certainly a testament to Faleshkarti technology with how easily Madeline could operate the machine. That said, it would make sense that culture would design things so that an idiot can use them. If only they developed the prophylactic sleeve. Also, I like the scale of the projector, I always found Arnold Rimmer's golfball sized unit too tiny for all of the things it had to do (despite being just a soft-light hologram).

Overall, just enjoyable seeing how Bethany has dialed back herself. She's still professional, but she's come to allow her defenses to come down in her off time. Less stress should mean a longer living vixen!

Well, Red Dwarf was chock full of super tech. I mean it didn't really state which of the over 30,000 centuries between now and then Rimmer's holo-bee was invented in (he didn't even have it until S3).

Fourth sentence
'hr' i think you mean hir?

Further on.
' Fortunately someone had had the foresight to get the coffee machine up and running to allow the more torpid amongst them to get their wake-up dose of caffeine.'
I am sure you meant one had?

I would of put a remark here about past incidents, but I decided against it.

Yeah, there should be an i in 'hr'.

Nope, 'had had' is in fact correct. Substituting the second 'had' with a synonym, you get something like 'had possessed'.

But while we're correcting grammar, there is no such thing as 'would of'. Correctly, it is 'would have'. That common error is derived from the contraction 'would've' which sounds similar to 'would of'. (Same goes for 'should of'.)

I admit I walked right into that.
I don't proofread my posts as thoroughly I try to do my work now.

Against my better judgement I am also going to voice my opinion.
You in that post, just gave me more help than what I received when I was under the false assumption that the mailing list was for such help.
I love the race, and like the universe despite its flaws.
The fans on the other hand, or paw as it should be called.
Seem to have taken 'made to be a better being' to mean 'made to be perfect' and of course the crap that logically follows.

I love playing them in my role play room, but I play them with flaws.
Flaws that will make some fans think I don't 'understand' the race. To which I would point out that no one understands them except for you.
I will write them in my stories as I improve my skills in such a way too.

One is haunted by a decision shi made to sacrifice a group of women, children and the like for hir and hir own group's survival.
Another is still dealing with, And will always deal with some psychological issues stemming from a traumatic event. And not in the Disney Esq manner of.
'Oh I had some problems back then and only slightly bothers me if at all now.'

I have said my piece on the subject and will not say any more.
I enjoy your work and hope you improve as I hope I will at the same time.
