Good work.), and what Trekkies would refer to as a 'Temporal Anomaly'. Oh and Jesus, who seems as compassionate and charismatic as he should be (according to current extant sources.)

He remembered Jeremiah, so he does remember things he learned as Simon, even after having TM's memories implanted. Sweeeeeet!<BR/><BR/>Now let's see what ragtag group of guys Jesus can rally for this work Jeremiah needs done.<BR/><BR/>A neat angle would be a chapter showing a "day in the life" of a few of these guys (or at least a morning) and then their getting picked to serve on the crew of 60, and that service affects them.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08722639974320971726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-87431067097375780462007-06-04T10:18:00.000-04:002007-06-04T10:18:00.000-04:00This is all so frakking cool I have to take a litt...This is all so frakking cool I have to take a little while to wrap my head around it.<BR/><BR/>Implications abound!Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06946639624660520997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-13163958861448235262007-06-04T02:58:00.000-04:002007-06-04T02:58:00.000-04:00SIMON!
