Jon Whitter is sad
Dr. Kodama:
Before we return it.
Dr. Kodama:
Games room will be a while.
Kato:
Seems like the scream affected most devices and services (KIs, water, etc.)
(12/21 19:09:05) GaryWolf: can you tell us which book(s) you might release first?
Dr. Kodama:
No, I can not.
GaryWolf:
Are you here to remove the barrier infront of you ?
(12/21 19:09:37) Tzalumen: can you tell us when the next message from the DRC will be?
Jon Whitter:
What are you working on at the moment Dr Kodama?
Dr. Kodama:
Unfortunately.
Kato:
Do you have a timeframe on when this area of the City will be open to us?
(12/21 19:09:51) quaywall: Have you heard from Dr. Watson?
Dr. Kodama:
Have not heard from Dr. Watson in a long tie.
GaryWolf:
Have you been speaking to Victor Laxman, he was here yesterday?
(12/21 19:10:27) Jon Whitter: Do you know where he went?
Pete Miller:
Who was just speaking aloud?
(12/21 19:10:42) Tzalumen: have you heard anything about the fireflies in Kemo?
(12/21 19:10:46) Thend: Do you know where Watson, Sharper, etc, went to? I mean, what was it like when you all disbanded?
Dr. Kodama:
Yes, I speak with Victor often.
Dr. Kodama:
Not especially interesting. We all left. It was not a happy time.
Kato:
Do you know about Sharper, then?
Jon Whitter:
I’m shocked that Sharper did not stay behind and steal everthing
(12/21 19:11:57) Kato: LOL
(12/21 19:11:59) Jon Whitter: everything*
(12/21 19:12:00) Brenda Rivera: What new information do you have for us today?
(12/21 19:12:09) Nefret: let me ask, What do you know?
(12/21 19:12:13) Brenda Rivera: Or is this more or less a courtesy call?
(12/21 19:12:22) GaryWolf: Dr Kodama, how do you take your coffee?
(12/21 19:12:23) SuperGram: Sorry quaywall
Dr. Kodama:
The only new information is that things make take longer than you think.
Dr. Kodama:
It’s an error.
Thend:
Hmm. If this isn’t too personal, there’s been rumors about ‘something’ between you and Marie Sutherland, Doctor - Anthing to add to this?
(12/21 19:12:59) GaryWolf: lol
(12/21 19:13:01) Tzalumen: don’t projects like this always take longer then you think?
Dr. Kodama:
No. And nothing to the rumors. She is not my type.
Dr. Kodama:
Not sure I understand.
quaywall:
Any news of the d’ni survivor - is he still there?
Dr. Kodama:
No schedule yet. But I will push for one.
Dr. Kodama:
I always have.
Kato:
Er, Doctor, is there ANYTHING you can tell us today?
SuperGram:
When does the DRC plan on opening the rest of the city?
(12/21 19:15:11) Oldman: shorah all
(12/21 19:15:14) Oldman waves
(12/21 19:15:15) Kato: Could you, uh, go ahead and tell us what that is?
(12/21 19:15:25) Brenda Rivera starts to laugh
(12/21 19:15:42) Tzalumen: does the DRC plan on eventually opening up the pub?
Dr. Kodama:
Depends on what you want it to be.
GaryWolf:
good news :)
(12/21 19:15:54) Kato laughs
(12/21 19:15:55) Thend is still getting over Kodama saying ‘Yes’
(12/21 19:16:01) Kato: Knew I wasn’t gonna get anything out of that :P
(12/21 19:16:13) Dredisant: Oldman… your not supposed to be back there… its too dangerous
(12/21 19:16:32) Tzalumen: are we going to get working toilets any time soon?
Dr. Kodama:
Oldman, why are you there?
SuperGram:
run Oldman
(12/21 19:17:03) Beefo la Rue : shorah
(12/21 19:17:04) Oldman: I’ve managed the superjump
(12/21 19:17:07) Dan’nee: Whew, I made it back.
(12/21 19:17:09) Dan’nee: Ki troubles
(12/21 19:17:12) SuperGram: Hide
(12/21 19:17:15) Erik: And there is a Bahro scream again! wacht out Oldman
(12/21 19:17:20) Shaja Neera: shoah
(12/21 19:17:20) Erik: *watch
(12/21 19:17:28) Kato: Heh–Bahro screams seem to be more increasing today.
(12/21 19:17:38) Dan’nee: What’s happened so far? Anyone care to fill me in in a PM?
(12/21 19:17:39) D’airyair: Shorah
(12/21 19:17:42) Tzalumen: are there any plans to set up a concession stand?
TomahnaGuy:
Please fill me in
Dr. Kodama:
Although, I wouldn’t be surprised if at some point…
TomahnaGuy:
Are the barriers going to be lifted?
(12/21 19:18:19) 4runner: What news can you tell us
Dr. Kodama:
Currently no work is happening there.
matt7188:
i think that is just dangorus
(12/21 19:18:27) Thend: Doctor, why do you carry thaat pipe with you everywhere and do you ever actually smoke the thing?
Dr. Kodama:
What news do you want?
TomahnaGuy:
When dr?
(12/21 19:18:48) Tzalumen: is it just me, or have the red lights on the pilliars on the bottom level brighter?
(12/21 19:18:51) Kato: What do you smoke?
Dr. Kodama:
When I’m not surrounded by people.
4runner:
Any new’s
(12/21 19:18:57) Dan’nee: Has there been any work lately on approving new Ages?
(12/21 19:19:00) Thend: Thanks, Doctor lol
TomahnaGuy:
Does that meen today?
TomahnaGuy:
Woot!
Dr. Kodama:
There has been quite a bit of work.
TomahnaGuy:
Seriously?
(12/21 19:19:27) Kato: Oh, also, is there any particular reason why the telescope (a mechanical device as far as I know) has been removed?
(12/21 19:19:28) matt7188: yeah
(12/21 19:19:33) Dan’nee: Or Eder Tsogahl?
(12/21 19:19:40) Erik: What happened to the fire-marbles in the neighborhoods, Dr. Kodama?
(12/21 19:19:48) TomahnaGuy: Dr laxman why have all the things been removed in the hood?
(12/21 19:20:06) TomahnaGuy: Or the bevins
Dr. Kodama:
We have removed certain items until we are certain they are working properly.
Brenda Rivera:
well, the Heek table is obvious , it needed repairs, the others…
(12/21 19:20:29) TomahnaGuy: Is the city sfe DrKodama?
Dr. Kodama:
The telescope…well it was best to have it gone for a while.
Dr. Kodama:
I assume the city is safe.
TomahnaGuy:
Why?
(12/21 19:20:48) Thend: Doctor, would you agree that the Event conditions (wiping all KI’s, disabling marbles, imagers, and Heek) resemble something along the lines of a very strong Electro–Magnetic pulse?etc)
(12/21 19:20:52) Brenda Rivera: Hmm, maybe somethign you don’t want us seeing?
(12/21 19:20:57) Kato: Don’t want people spying on the City? ;)
(12/21 19:21:02) SuperGram: I think people are getting a bit antsy and want to explore
Dr. Kodama:
You’ve been watching LOST too much.
Dan’nee:
Becuase you don’t want us seeing what you’re working on?
(12/21 19:21:14) Thend laughs
(12/21 19:21:15) Kato laughs
(12/21 19:21:18) TomahnaGuy: Lol
(12/21 19:21:26) Brenda Rivera starts to laugh
(12/21 19:21:27) Kam Uraki: Ah, in other words we can’t peep on the girls Bevins now Sad
(12/21 19:21:27) matt7188: lol
(12/21 19:21:28) Dan’nee: Are we expecting any other DRC visitors today?
(12/21 19:21:40) TomahnaGuy: Dr kodama are you opening the city now?
Dr. Kodama:
The city is probably safe but we do not work in probabilities.
Jahuti:
Barriers down now! Barriers down now!
(12/21 19:22:13) Thend: Doctor, good point, and many have been wondering also if you are actually IN LOST, as the person in the Dharma Foundation video - Is this true?
(12/21 19:22:14) TomahnaGuy: Where?
Dr. Kodama:
We need to make sure.
Kato:
So, are you and your crew going to have to inspect the whole City before you open it?
TomahnaGuy:
Dr kodama please allow us to access some city ares - just takotah
(12/21 19:22:46) J’ni: Dr, is anything ever certain? If so, what?
(12/21 19:22:48) Kam Uraki: lol, as though Kodama could wave his hand and the barriers would disappear with his devine powers
(12/21 19:22:48) Dan’nee: Why not let us help you check things out?
(12/21 19:22:52) Kato: Have you already inspected this area?
(12/21 19:22:52) Tzalumen: What happened to the guild of maintainers?
Dr. Kodama:
We are in the process of inspection already.
Dan’nee:
Give us some training and let us help out.
(12/21 19:23:09) TomahnaGuy: how long?
(12/21 19:23:11) SuperGram: I don’t see any DRC in there obviously working
(12/21 19:23:14) TomahnaGuy: until the inspection is finsihed
(12/21 19:23:20) matt7188: or is there some secret that the DRC has about the baricaded areas
(12/21 19:23:29) Kam Uraki: The DRC have cloaking devices, SG
(12/21 19:23:48) SuperGram: hehe
(12/21 19:23:50) matt7188: lol
(12/21 19:23:51) Brenda Rivera chuckles
(12/21 19:23:51) TomahnaGuy: Dr Kodama when will the DRC site be updated and explorers allowed to acess eder delin and tsogahl again?
(12/21 19:23:52) SuperGram: I’d be willing to bet Kam
Dr. Kodama:
They are mostly inside.
Thend:
Doctor, in other words, do you moonlight with the Dharma Foundation?
Kam Uraki:
Inside in time? Existential answer Doc
(12/21 19:24:32) Thend: I see, thank you, Doctor, it explains a lot
(12/21 19:24:40) TomahnaGuy: Dr Kodama do you know where phil henderson or Dr watson is/ and we wont take no for an answe ;)
TomahnaGuy:
hay!
(12/21 19:24:53) SuperGram: hehehe
(12/21 19:24:58) Erik: Nice try TG :)
(12/21 19:25:01) Dan’nee: I guess you should take that for an ansewr
(12/21 19:25:05) SuperGram laughs
(12/21 19:25:09) Kato: If he actually does not know, then he shouldn’t be forced to answer ;)
(12/21 19:25:13) Thend: Folks seem real interested in Wat-man and the Phend-ster
(12/21 19:25:19) Jimbo: Well, well, if it aint Dr. Kodama!
Dr. Kodama:
I don’t know where either of htem are.
TomahnaGuy:
Dr Kodama is it true some of the DRC have met the bahro?
(12/21 19:25:36) Dan’nee: Dr. forgive my ignorance, but what do you work on in the DRC exactly?
Dr. Kodama:
You can ask them. I never have.
Kam Uraki:
Dr. K. If you happen to have a prison book around, I could make a few folks disappear for you if you wanted… y’know… accidentally
(12/21 19:25:58) TomahnaGuy: have you met yeesha?
(12/21 19:26:01) GaryWolf: Dr do you think we should fear the Bahro at this point ?
Dr. Kodama:
I oversee Phase One and Phase Two Restoration work.
Dan’nee:
Ah, thanks
(12/21 19:26:33) SuperGram: Do you think We’ll ever get to meet the Bahro?
(12/21 19:26:34) Thend: Kaaam lol
Dr. Kodama:
Early restoration - the first phases.
TomahnaGuy:
Dr Kodama what is there to hide int he library?
Kam Uraki:
Phase one is the risky part. Hope you use maintainer suits
(12/21 19:26:53) TomahnaGuy: then whyy not ope it?
Tzalumen:
do you think the Bahro taste like chicken?
(12/21 19:26:55) TomahnaGuy: *open
Dr. Kodama:
I don’t think a Bahro would let you eat it.
Erik:
TG, it has to be inspected after Tuesday’s events
(12/21 19:27:26) SuperGram: I wouldn’t want to eat them
Dr. Kodama:
I’m not sure.
TomahnaGuy:
Dr Kodama do you know how we were all mysteriously linked out yesterday?
Dr. Kodama:
I’m sure someone knows.
Kam Uraki:
Oh, Kodama. Do you ever feel like pretending your Dartth Vader in the maintainer suit?
Dr. Kodama:
I don’t know.
TomahnaGuy:
on ytuesday
(12/21 19:27:57) Dan’nee: What is the DRC message we are downloading on our KI?
(12/21 19:27:59) Jimbo: ur loosing it, Kodama
TomahnaGuy:
its the tobacco
(12/21 19:28:14) TomahnaGuy: :P
J’ni:
Dr., do you feel that gatherings like this are closer to interrogations; or press conferences?
(12/21 19:28:32) Thend: Doctor, seeing as we are all on equal ground here - the explorers and the DRC - will you please institute a collective organizing body in Uru without the ob vious hierarchy at present
(12/21 19:28:33) Dan’nee: Do you know what the error is involved with?
(12/21 19:28:38) Brenda Rivera starts to laugh
TomahnaGuy:
Dr Kodama do you think that Yeesha willaffext the restoration?
(12/21 19:28:56) Tzalumen: are there D’ni weapons caches?
(12/21 19:28:57) Thend: Bad answer lol
TomahnaGuy:
do you like this interview?
(12/21 19:29:10) Kam Uraki: Kodama, can we stock the pub with booze so we can buy you a drink next time
(12/21 19:29:11) Dan’nee: Is there any plans on institutin a Guild system?
SuperGram:

(12/21 19:29:44) Jimbo: Arent u just a rigid academic?
(12/21 19:29:46) TomahnaGuy: Dr Kodama how come youve let some poeple over the baricdes?
(12/21 19:29:48) Kam Uraki: Okay, favorite drink, Doc?
(12/21 19:29:50) GaryWolf: Kodama will you post more often on the drc website ?
(12/21 19:29:53) Erik: Great idea Kam, then we could all have a seat.. and ask questions while we are having a good time! :)
Dr. Kodama:
We didn’t let them.
Dan’nee:
When does the DRC plan on instituting Guilds?
TomahnaGuy:
how did they get over - arent u concerned?
Jon Whitter:
Those people over the baricades are not even wearing hard hats this is not safe
(12/21 19:30:30) TomahnaGuy: arent u gonna do something?
Jimbo:
ill teach u the superjump, Kodama
(12/21 19:30:44) TomahnaGuy: are u useless?
(12/21 19:30:46) Kam Uraki: Dr… I gotta ask. Do you speak Japanese?
(12/21 19:30:50) Erik: It’s their own responsebility
(12/21 19:31:03) Jimbo: he,he
(12/21 19:31:11) Fra’ni: lol Jimbo
(12/21 19:31:13) Brenda Rivera: Is anything being unveiled today?
(12/21 19:31:27) TomahnaGuy: Dr Kodama as much as we (well I do to a certain extent) agree with the DRC don u think ur being over cautious
(12/21 19:31:29) Tzalumen: Well we ever be able to download ringtones to our Ki?
(12/21 19:31:39) Thend: That was.. intersting
(12/21 19:31:40) TomahnaGuy: hes gone
(12/21 19:31:47) Dan’nee: Do you think that was on purpose?
(12/21 19:31:47) GaryWolf: I think he didnt have time for the stupid questions
(12/21 19:31:53) Jon Whitter: He was beamed up
(12/21 19:31:54) TomahnaGuy: anyone get a chatlog?
(12/21 19:31:57) Kato: What happened to Dr. K?!
(12/21 19:31:59) Dan’nee: I got some
(12/21 19:32:01) GaryWolf: he seems like a very serious guy
(12/21 19:32:05) 4runner: He only answers with yes and no
(12/21 19:32:06) Dan’nee: But I came in a few minutes late
(12/21 19:32:09) TomahnaGuy: hes an idiot
(12/21 19:32:13) Erik: Did he linked? Or… was he linked???
[Kodama linked out unexpectedly but reappeared]
(12/21 19:38:20) TomahnaGuy: a weel!
(12/21 19:38:23) TomahnaGuy: *wek
(12/21 19:38:24) quaywall: Fair enough - that’s something to wrk with
(12/21 19:38:28) TomahnaGuy: *week
(12/21 19:38:29) Erik: Aw… I thought a few days!
Dr. Kodama:
But hopefully some other areas will be open sooner.
Jon Whitter:
Engberg is a slow worker
(12/21 19:38:37) Dan’nee: At least we know how much to wait
(12/21 19:38:40) Erik: But… I can live with that....
(12/21 19:38:45) TomahnaGuy: please persuade them to make it sooner dr
Dr. Kodama:
One other area at least.
Raftel:
People are already finding ways around these barrirers
Kato:
Other areas of the City or entirely new areas to us?
(12/21 19:38:59) TomahnaGuy: ty
(12/21 19:39:00) Tzalumen: depending on your definition of a few, a week could be a few days
Dr. Kodama:
I understand it’s frustrating.
SuperGram:
Tell them at least clean up the hoods
(12/21 19:39:05) TomahnaGuy thanks dr kodama
(12/21 19:39:11) TomahnaGuy: for trying
(12/21 19:39:16) Erik: thank you Doctor
(12/21 19:39:23) Firefly: What other area will be opened dr kodama
(12/21 19:39:24) TomahnaGuy: one final question....
Dr. Kodama:
Yes. One more.
TomahnaGuy:
when will we see the JaTaeri district?
(12/21 19:39:49) Dredisant: if Kodama needs permission from his superiors, then we will just wait… its not like Kodama doesnt want to let us into the rest of the city
(12/21 19:40:00) Dredisant: right?
Dr. Kodama:
Long time. It’s still under my control and there is quite a bit of work needed on my team.
TomahnaGuy:
awww
(12/21 19:40:23) Thend: Doctor, upon what authority do you and the DRC make demands upon the explorers like this - to ‘wait’, and so forth?
(12/21 19:40:25) TomahnaGuy: whats coming soon then?
(12/21 19:40:26) Erik: So it’s still in phase 1 or 2?
(12/21 19:40:33) Dan’nee: Thanks for answering all our questions.
Dr. Kodama:
Thend we control the barriers.
Thend:
Curses!
(12/21 19:40:56) SuperGram: :)
(12/21 19:40:57) TomahnaGuy: can u lift them for just tonight?
(12/21 19:40:58) Kato: Yes Doctor thank you for your time. Oh, if you can–will there be any more DRC staff here today?
(12/21 19:41:01) TomahnaGuy: because we like you
Dr. Kodama:
We control the Books.
Dr. Kodama:
I would watch how you talk.
TomahnaGuy:
u control everything
(12/21 19:41:13) SuperGram: Thanks for you patience with us Dr. K
(12/21 19:41:13) TomahnaGuy: we know
(12/21 19:41:16) Tzalumen: what kind of equipment are you using to make the repairs?
(12/21 19:41:25) Thend: One day, oh yes, one day, the EXPLORERS will control the barriers - mark my words!
Dr. Kodama:
I’ve been in a good mood lately for some reason.
TomahnaGuy:
really how odd
(12/21 19:41:42) GaryWolf: maybe its the coffee
(12/21 19:41:43) TomahnaGuy: :P
(12/21 19:41:46) Dredisant: good to hear Dr. K
(12/21 19:41:47) Matthew Miller: Well, it’s good to be back in the cavern
(12/21 19:41:49) Kato: Maybe it’s the pipe ;)
(12/21 19:41:50) Erik: Or the tobacco
(12/21 19:41:51) TomahnaGuy: or the new pipe stuff
(12/21 19:41:55) TomahnaGuy: hehe
(12/21 19:41:58) SuperGram: that must be an important clue to us
(12/21 19:41:59) TomahnaGuy: same thought patterns
Dr. Kodama:
Although comments like that wear on me.
TomahnaGuy:
sorry
(12/21 19:42:16) TomahnaGuy: couldnt resist
(12/21 19:42:16) SuperGram: Why is Dr. Kodama in such a good mood.
(12/21 19:42:32) Erik: Sorry Doctor. Thank you for answering questions.
(12/21 19:42:32) TomahnaGuy: so please do ur best to have these open ASAP dr
(12/21 19:42:38) TomahnaGuy: and ty for all ur work
Dr. Kodama:
Well, I suppose I should be getting to some Ages that you will see some day rather than sitting here and talking to you.
Hitana:

(12/21 19:42:54) Dan’nee: Well, we’re glad you stopped in
