[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:04:04 PM] <Jerusha> Did you go there with your parents?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:04:07 PM] <Jerusha> Hi KK
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:04:09 PM] <EvieOnPhone> DH may want me to drive soon, but I'm free at the moment

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:04:32 PM] <Jemler> hi kk
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:05:04 PM] <EvieOnPhone> No, was finishing my vacation with friends while DH scopes out a job lead
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:05:14 PM] <KK> So, what's everyone been up to?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:05:28 PM] <Jerusha> Hope the lead turns out well. But would it be in Tennessee?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:05:30 PM] <KK> Any luck, Evie?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:05:36 PM] <Jemler> i finished reading Annies' books.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:05:44 PM] <EvieOnPhone> The job would be in north Alabama
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:05:54 PM] <KK> Commutable?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:06:07 PM] <EvieOnPhone> And would be his dream job if he gets it
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:06:22 PM] <EvieOnPhone> Yes. He'd come home on weekends
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:06:22 PM] <Jerusha> Let's hope he does, then.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:06:32 PM] <the_Bee> hanging out. We had an interesting experience in church. The minister did a version of Calling the Quarters, only without any reference to the archangels.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:06:34 PM] <Jerusha> Can you retire soon?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:06:45 PM] <EvieOnPhone> And I may retire in a year and a half
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:06:58 PM] <KK> That sounds cool, Bee.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:07:06 PM] <Jerusha> That's not too bad. I have to wait five years :(
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:07:35 PM] <the_Bee> I'm already asreitred as I'll ever be.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:07:54 PM] <the_Bee> as ready as

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:08:30 PM] <Jerusha> How goes your week, KK?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:08:30 PM] <EvieOnPhone> I got some sewing done for the littles this weekend, including a new cap for Duncan
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:08:31 PM] <the_Bee> KK, how was your party(?) last Sunday?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:08:47 PM] <KK> It was nice, Bee.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:09:08 PM] <Jerusha> More fitted, Evie?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:09:12 PM] <KK> Evie, what kind of cap?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:09:56 PM] <texanu> Evie, did you recieved my last e-mail?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:09:57 PM] <EvieOnPhone> Another skullcap, but more fitted
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:10:04 PM] <EvieOnPhone> And thinner
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:10:04 PM] <KK> BTW, I like the little surgical instruments you've made for Rhys.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:10:18 PM] <KK> Ah. What did you use?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:10:19 PM] <Jerusha> Provided he doesn't use them on me
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:10:30 PM] <EvieOnPhone> Thank you. I'm still learning how to use that plastic

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:11:04 PM] <the_Bee> What kind of surgical implements were available in the 11th century?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:11:10 PM] <Jerusha> The hands don't bother me, it's that hook thing
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:11:16 PM] <the_Bee> Hi Alkari
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:11:20 PM] <DesertRose> Hi Alkari.

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:11:32 PM] <EvieOnPhone> Texanu, I'll look later. My parents were in town for a few weeks so I'm behind on email

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:11:50 PM] <Jemler> you're thinking of once upon a time, not rhys
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:11:55 PM] <KK> Cutting implements of various sorts, retracting hooks, curettes, probes, needles....
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:12:13 PM] <Jerusha> LOL, Jemler

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:13:07 PM] <EvieOnPhone> The new cap is of purple satin backed with iron on interfacing, KK.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:13:22 PM] <cynicalmedic> She knows how the shift has been so far.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:13:30 PM] <DesertRose> LOL, cynicalmedic.

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:13:44 PM] <texanu> Evie, ok. I'm very sorry dolitelnoe for silence, but during exams online only distracting, so I try not to come here at all))
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:13:56 PM] <Jerusha> Looking forward to a picture when you can post one, Evie

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:14:40 PM] <EvieOnPhone> I've uploaded some to Flicker but haven't posted them on the forum yet.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:14:41 PM] <cynicalmedic> I knew what you meant, KK. :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:14:44 PM] <KK> So, challenging shift, eh?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:15:01 PM] <cynicalmedic> Oh yes - the idiot curve has gone off the chart.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:15:22 PM] <Jerusha> In house idiots, or outsiders?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:15:25 PM] <Alkari> Were they all out over the summer solstice? :)

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:16:03 PM] <cynicalmedic> Outsiders - the lovely members of the public we scrape off the pavement and save from their own folly.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:16:16 PM] <Jerusha> Now that's a challenge
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:16:24 PM] <Texanu_> Hi, CM

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:16:49 PM] <cynicalmedic> Hi Texan
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:17:00 PM] <cynicalmedic> Texan, sorry
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:17:13 PM] <cynicalmedic> I hate auto-correct.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:17:29 PM] <Alkari> With a full moon last week followed by the summer solstice, the potential for idiocy would have been sky high
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:17:49 PM] <DesertRose> There are a couple of websites dedicated to the ways autocorrect hoses things up.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:18:03 PM] <Texanu_> CM, oh, I understand. But sometimes it is really useful. :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:18:22 PM] <the_Bee> www.damnyouutocorrect.com
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:18:26 PM] <cynicalmedic> Yes, and it hasn't waned. My nephew had a heck of a week on his patrols, and so did his friend Brett.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:18:32 PM] <DesertRose> Amongst others, yes. :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:18:52 PM] <the_Bee> Is Brett your boy child?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:19:23 PM] <cynicalmedic> Stephen is my boy child - he doesn't patrol anymore - he's a tactical instructor.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:19:27 PM] <DF64> 12how did the interview go DR
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:19:31 PM] <the_Bee> ah, okay
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:19:53 PM] <DesertRose> I got the job, so pretty well. :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:02 PM] <DF64> 12YEAH!!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:04 PM] <Jerusha> Yippee DR!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:09 PM] <cynicalmedic> Congratulations on that, DR.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:11 PM] <DesertRose> YAY! :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:14 PM] <Jerusha> Now can you get a cat?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:23 PM] <the_Bee> Well Done, DR :D
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:27 PM] <DesertRose> Not immediately. We'll see how money shakes out.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:37 PM] <Jemler> it was a phone interview, right?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:40 PM] <DesertRose> Yes.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:44 PM] <Jerusha> Good point. But hopefully it will work out
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:45 PM] <Jemler> 976?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:48 PM] <EvieOnPhone> Yay DR!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:55 PM] <Jemler> :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:20:58 PM] <DesertRose> Um, no, Jemler.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:21:08 PM] * Jemler ducks
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:21:14 PM] * DesertRose beats Jemler upside the head with a mackerel.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:21:15 PM] <Jerusha> When do you start, DR?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:21:32 PM] <DesertRose> Probably Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:22:05 PM] <KK> Excellent!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:22:09 PM] <DesertRose> I had to order a piece of equipment because the one I had didn't play nicely with their software, but it came in yesterday. Now I just need to get familiar with their software.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:22:09 PM] <cynicalmedic> That's so exciting - medical transcription, right?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:22:11 PM] <DesertRose> Yes.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:22:28 PM] <Alkari> Congrats, DR
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:22:58 PM] <DesertRose> Thank you.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:03 PM] <Jemler> i used to work for a company that did medical billing.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:03 PM] <Texanu_> WOW, congratulations, DR! :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:09 PM] <DesertRose> Thanks! :D
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:10 PM] <cynicalmedic> Are you transcribing for just one practice or facility?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:17 PM] <the_Bee> Does that mena you have to be able to read doctors' handwriting?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:27 PM] <DesertRose> I'm transcribing for one client right now, yes.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:28 PM] <the_Bee> mean
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:34 PM] <DesertRose> No, I just have to understand their voices.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:23:53 PM] <DesertRose> They make audio recordings of their notes and I type them up, basically.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:24:09 PM] <Jemler> recordings? at least you canrewind.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:24:33 PM] <DesertRose> Yes, that's actually the piece of equipment I had to order, a foot pedal for moving around in the recordings.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:24:39 PM] <KK> I'll bet that can be a challenge, though once you're familiar with all the terminology and the speaker's quirks, I suppose a lot of it becomes almost automatic.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:24:43 PM] <cynicalmedic> Hopefully, you won't have one like the doc I used to work for - his handwriting was horrendous, and he talked like an auctioneer on meth.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:24:46 PM] <Jemler> maybe you'll get nixon's by mistake! :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:24:55 PM] <Texanu_> Well, it should be easier than recognizing doctors' notes))) :D
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:24:59 PM] <DesertRose> Yeah, it's got its challenges to be sure.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:25:11 PM] <Jerusha> You will do fine, DR
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:25:17 PM] <DesertRose> CM, I love that simile, "auctioneer on meth." LOL
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:25:27 PM] <DesertRose> Thanks, Jerusha.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:25:36 PM] <KK> I had an eye appointment on THursday, and the doc dictated most of his notes. He said to allow about 2-3 weeks by the time the material can get back to my regular docs.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:25:53 PM] <Jemler> did you have to sign a confidentiality clause?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:25:57 PM] <the_Bee> How iss your vision, KK?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:26:24 PM] <DesertRose> Yes, Jemler. Standard for the industry. You have to promise not to share client info or try to steal clients if you move to another company.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:26:48 PM] <Jemler> i had to sign a non-competition form.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:26:56 PM] <Jemler> good for 5 years.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:26:59 PM] <KK> Sounds like I need to get the cataracts taken care of before they can decide whether muscle surgery will also help the souble vision.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:00 PM] <DesertRose> Yeah.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:07 PM] <KK> double vision
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:07 PM] <Alkari> Yuk
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:15 PM] <DesertRose> Oh, what fun, KK.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:22 PM] <DF64> 12not!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:31 PM] <Alkari> Well, one step at a time, as they say.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:32 PM] <the_Bee> I had cararact surgery in 2007.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:37 PM] <DesertRose> Actually, according to my mom, cataract surgery was the best thing she'd done for her eyes in a very long time.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:53 PM] <Jerusha> You might not need glasses anymore, KK
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:27:57 PM] <cynicalmedic> Cataract surgery has really changed for the better in recent years.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:28:03 PM] <KK> Yeah, so now I need to find out when to expect the copy-edited ms. to come back, so I can see when it's most feasible to schedule the cataract surgery.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:28:14 PM] <DesertRose> Ah.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:28:25 PM] <the_Bee> It really improved my sight, but I did --and do again--have double vision. glasses can fix it.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:28:34 PM] <Jerusha> Gee, KK, I would be happy to read that for you (just kidding)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:28:48 PM] <Jemler> nice one, jerusha
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:28:50 PM] <KK> The cataract surgery should mostly correct the near-sightedness, but the double vision is a whole nother kettle of fish.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:28:52 PM] <EvieOnPhone> So would I! ;-)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:28:56 PM] <DF64> 12World Cup update: US-Portugal 1-1
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:29:16 PM] <the_Bee> Go USA!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:29:39 PM] <KK> Yes, Bee, so I'll still need glasses. But at this point, a new RX won't help much until I get the cataracts taken care of.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:29:58 PM] <DesertRose> The cataract surgery should help a lot, though.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:30:05 PM] <the_Bee> for me the improvement was immediate.

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:32:27 PM] <KK> Yes, but I'll still need to wait for the eyes to settle down post-cataract surgery before I can get new glasses of whatever I then need. There are time chunks in there, when I won't be able to see well enough to spend long hours at the computer.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:33:03 PM] <Alkari> Well, at least you have The King's Deryni all completed!!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:33:20 PM] <Jerusha> And a HUGE audience waiting to read it
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:33:42 PM] <Laurna> Cataract surgery, wish you a fast recovery.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:33:46 PM] <DF64> 12everyone here
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:34:01 PM] <DF64> 12waiting to read it
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:34:20 PM] <KK> Proofing is part of the production process. The book isn't really done until all that is done, too, for a Dec. 2 release.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:34:44 PM] <cynicalmedic> My co-workers are always delighted when I have a new book to read. I tend to be less grumpy.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:34:46 PM] <Jemler> need help proofing?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:34:48 PM] <the_Bee> and for that you need good eye-sight
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:34:53 PM] <Alkari> Well, I am sure an SOS would produce an army of volunteers!!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:35:03 PM] <Alkari> Jinx, jemler!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:35:13 PM] <Jerusha> I volunteer! (Just don't ask me to understand commas)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:35:42 PM] <EvieOnPhone> I understand commas. :-D
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:35:45 PM] <Jemler> commas are when you are asleep for long time.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:35:47 PM] <Alkari> Me too.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:35:47 PM] <KK> Sadly, it isn't just proofing for typos; it's also proofing for content and continuity, which requires serious concentration.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:36:03 PM] <Jerusha> I think you are the only one that does, Evie! :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:36:03 PM] <Alkari> That's what your dedicated reader fans are for :D
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:36:11 PM] <Jemler> :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:36:16 PM] <Texanu_> For 2 Dec it is possible to grow old)):D
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:36:16 PM] <Laurna> lol I agree Jemler
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:36:21 PM] <cynicalmedic> :)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:36:29 PM] <Jerusha> Count me in!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:37:58 PM] <Alkari> See KK - you could have a group proof read!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:38:00 PM] <Texanu_> I like commas =)) but I understand well only Russian ones. =))
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:38:27 PM] <Laurna> I bet its exciting to give your story one last read through before handing it over to the press.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:38:58 PM] <cynicalmedic> This is going to be a good book year. KK has a new one, Sharyn McCrumb has a new one, and Patricia Morrison is working on the Keltiad again!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:39:00 PM] <Jerusha> Exciting or scary - could be both
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:39:21 PM] <Jemler> i finished reading Annies' books.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:39:21 PM] <Jerusha> And Annie's, too
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:39:23 PM] <DF64> 12 2-1 USA!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:39:36 PM] <Alkari> Yes - I have it on in the background!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:40:09 PM] <KK> Very exciting, Laurna. And the proofing is the last chance to catch any corrections that need to be made.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:41:43 PM] <Laurna> Well i can not wait until christmas.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:41:58 PM] <Jerusha> I agree, Laurna!
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:42:08 PM] <Jerusha> Need.Morgan.fix
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:42:36 PM] <Laurna> Hehe and I know for certain that he lives through it.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:42:53 PM] <Jerusha> ;)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:43:11 PM] <KK> Patricia Morris is doing another Keltiad? Cool. I haven't heard much about her for ages. She was sort of a neighbor in Ireland--in that we both lived in the same country.;).
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:43:19 PM] <EvieOnPhone> Is young Duncan in it at all?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:43:45 PM] <Texanu_> Evie, should be, I suppose
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:43:57 PM] <KK> Only peripherally, once his father becomes duke.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:44:37 PM] <EvieOnPhone> I guess I'll need to subsist on Arilans in the absence of my Duncan, then.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:44:42 PM] <the_Bee> How many years does the book cover?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:45:06 PM] <cynicalmedic> She's on Facebook, KK. She's also been writing murder mysteries and working on a book about Vikings. She just released "Tales from The Spiral Castle", and it included the Templar story.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:45:09 PM] <Texanu_> Spoilers began))):D
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:45:21 PM] <KK> About 6 or so.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:45:24 PM] <DesertRose> I'm going to wind up calling Jackson Galaxy from "My Cat From Hell."
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:46:10 PM] <DesertRose> I'm cat-sitting for my family while they're out of town, and PJ needs antibiotics for an eye infection, except she won't let me near her to give them to her.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:46:25 PM] <the_Bee> So duncan will have gegun his priestly studies.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:46:54 PM] <Jerusha> Or is that because Morgan goes to Rhemuth and Duncan stays in Cassan?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:47:36 PM] <Jemler> do we meet bethane again?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:47:59 PM] <the_Bee> or Dhugal?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:48:19 PM] <Jemler> dhugal being born?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:48:19 PM] <KK> Duncan hasn't begun, but he's thinking about it, and Alaric is concerned. No, no Bethane.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:48:34 PM] <KK> Wait, yes, Bethane, when Alaric breaks his arm.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:48:35 PM] <Jerusha> She doesn
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:48:48 PM] <Jerusha> 't appear when Alaric breaks his arm?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:48:55 PM] <Laurna> Perhaps we need a short story with Kevin and Duncan learning to sword fight only duncan wants his books more.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:48:59 PM] <the_Bee> Oh, right. I was confusing Alarics timeline with Kelson's.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:49:01 PM] <Jerusha> Ah, OK
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:49:16 PM] <KK> Lots of timelines to keep straight.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:49:37 PM] <Jemler> what year is it?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:49:54 PM] <Jemler> and don't say 2014
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:49:55 PM] <Jerusha> Will you ever do a short story of Duncan's priesting, KK?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:50:17 PM] <KK> Dunno.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:50:26 PM] * EvieOnPhone perks up

[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:54:18 PM] <Jemler> atlas? who wrote it?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:54:36 PM] <Jerusha> There is no technical atlas, but there is the codex
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:54:58 PM] <Laurna> Isn't that nearly the same thing.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:55:00 PM] <Jerusha> Codex does people, atlas geography
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:55:35 PM] <Jerusha> Together they tell you pretty much everything
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:55:46 PM] <the_Bee> Doesn't the Codex also include place names?
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:55:53 PM] <Alkari> Yes, and a feew maps
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:56:17 PM] <Alkari> I enjoy the brief histories of some of the places
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:56:18 PM] <Jerusha> Yes, but not to the detail I would like (but then that's just me)
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:57:31 PM] <Laurna> The trouble is you need two atlas for Camber's time and Kelson's the cities and places change.
[Sunday, June 22, 2014] [07:57:38 PM] <Jerusha> Like, where is the boundary between Corwyn and Carthmoor?

"If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty, and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans."

James Herriot (James Alfred "Alfie" Wight), when a human client asked him if animals have souls.  (I don't remember in which book the story originally appeared.)
