BrettM:
Good afternoon, Dr. Kodama.
Dr. Kodama:
Hello.
BrettM:
Is there anything I can help you with?

[Jacky tells Dr. Kodama he reminds her of a real doctor.]

Dr. Kodama:
Of a what?
Dalken Starbyne:
Shorah!
Dr. Kodama:
Ah…
Dr. Kodama:
I am a real doctor.
BrettM laughs

[Jacky asks Dr. Kodama if he would like to play school.]

Dr. Kodama:
No thank you.
Matthew Allen:
Greetings Doctor
Dr. Kodama:
Hello.
Matthew Allen:
so what are you a doctor of, since you’re a real doc?
Dr. Kodama:
Geology
BrettM:
Do we have you to thank for the return of the scopes?
Dalken Starbyne:
Hey, just wondering…did you need help with anything at the moment?
Matthew Allen:
So what brings you here today, Doctor?

[Dr. Kodama wanders the hood for a time, not speaking. He ends up on the Community Room balcony. Some other explorers follow him over the barricade at the stairs.]

Dr. Kodama:
What are you doing up here?
Matthew Allen:
looking for you :)
Dr. Kodama:
Ah, just checking the community center - shoud open today.
Matthew Allen:
oh really? That’s great news!
vid:
That’s great news!
Dr. Kodama:
Yes, about time, huh?
Strider:
Woo hoo
Loriendil:
Very nice!
vid:
That means Spoken Word Night won’t be in that cramped classroom next week… thanks so much, Dr. Kodama!
Dr. Kodama:
I also think Laxman is going to try to get Heek tables in here today.
Matthew Allen:
so was it determined if the incident surrounding the bahro scream caused any damage to it, since that’s where the town hall was?
BrettM:
Yes, much appreciated!
Matthew Allen:
And heek tables! Quite a day
Dr. Kodama:
Not sure they are working correctly but we’re putting them back regardless…
Dr. Kodama:
No new damage that we could find.
Loriendil:
Ahh, well, the tables are good for dancing on if nothing else..
vid:
They’d probably work better if people danced on them less.
BrettM:
Can you comment on the behavior of the scopes now?
Dr. Kodama:
I’ve heard they are having problems.
Arthur Kalnins:
Problems?
BrettM:
Any idea why? Some kind of damage?
Dr. Kodama:
Am I wrong?
Dr. Kodama:
Not sure.
Dr. Kodama:
Fortunately, not my area.
BrettM:
No, sir, you are not wrong!
BrettM:
Mr. Laxman, then?
Dr. Kodama:
He would know more than myself in regards to the telescopes.
BrettM:
Thank you.
Matthew Allen:
So is there any sort of timetable right now for what areas of the city are going to be cleared? Takotah? Hall of Kings?
vid:
Dr. Kodama, can you make a comment about the “instancing” that is occuring? It’s making life very difficult recently, even with several o f us trying to chart it all out.
Dr. Kodama:
No official timetable yet.
Dr. Kodama:
The instancing is confusing.
Matthew Allen:
Now there’s an understatement…
Dr. Kodama:
Not sure we completely understand it either - or at leat myself.
Arthur Kalnins:
Can we expect to see the DRC more often now than before or is this sort of a reaction to the 19th’s scream?
Dr. Kodama:
It’s not what I like to deal with - unscientific.
Dr. Kodama:
I’ll leave the magial solutions to someone else.
vid:
It’s probably very scientific… we just don’t know how to explain it yet. But we’re certainly doing our best.
Dr. Kodama:
I’m not sure it is.
Arthur Kalnins:
Is the DRC going to continue removing the stones and pages, etc.?
vid:
Everything is scientific on some level. It’s just a matter of understanding everything involved.
Dr. Kodama:
Perhaps.
BrettM:
Dr. Kodama, which of the DRC is most involved with historical translations?
Dr. Kodama:
No, we won’t be removing stones, pages… we aren’t the ones who put them out in the first place.
Arthur Kalnins:
Okay.
Dr. Kodama:
Dr. Watson.
Arthur Kalnins:
Dr. Watson?
Dr. Kodama:
I’m sorry to be so quick but I do have a meeting to attend to in the city.
Matthew Allen:
Who is doing the work in Dr. Watson’s absence though, if anyone?
BrettM:
Hmmm, he might be a little difficult to consult these days!
Loriendil:
Is Dr. Watson back?
Dr. Kodama:
Nick knows quite a bit if you see him.
Dr. Kodama:
Nick White.
Matthew Allen:
OK, thank you for coming Doctor
BrettM:
Thank you for stopping to speak to us today.
Dr. Kodama:
Look for community center to open later in the day at least.
Dr. Kodama:
Good day.
