    As most will have heard by now, the swine influenza vaccine will be ready for general use in USA around October. Pregnant women, health care workers, and other 'high risk' categories are recommeded first candidates. The WHO has said that most nations will need to immunize their citizens against the disease.
    With all this positivity, along comes people like me. People with a less optimistic outlook.

    I see this situation going in multiple directions: one of them is that the some convenient disaster strikes, such as a famine, billions die, and everyone saves face. The second is that the vaccine goes ahead, it is administered to 100 million Americans, and following this, just as it has always been in the past, there will be an outbreak of a disease similar to the one the vaccine protects against. The convenient scapegoats will be the those who refused the injections, and perhaps illegal immigrants, along with a new strain of the virus. Will the vaccine get the blame? Heh, why would the savior be blamed? The vaccine being blamed is the third outcome, and the least likely.

    I am always right, except when I'm wrong. Mostly, I'm right but misexplained. Why can a vaccine induce the disease it is meant to prevent?

    Two reasons: the live compounds introduce the disease because IV injections are a foolish idea to begin, bypassing the body's defences. The second is that because the vaccine destroys the victim's immune system, they are suspectible to anything and everything their body encounters. In short, vaccination is like Darwinism: a nineteenth century idea which needs serious reanalysis. Both have been, and so far as I am concerned, both have come drastically short of their promises.

    It's a shame Nightmare Architect Mabase is both unoriginal and crap. Because if I'd written it as an original book, and managed to finish it about now, I could be the genius whom no-one listened to. My plotline about a mysterious plague inflicted by a vaccine was both original and prophetic. I am waiting to see what happens. It's macabre, isn't it? If people don't die, I'll be annoyed that I was very wrong. If they do die, I'll be annoyed that no-one listened and when no-one accepts that I knew exactly what was going to happen and wrote a story about it. They will consider me 'hateful' perhaps. A demagogue stirring up miserable people into violence? Bla, bla. I warned random people, so if they or their friends die, it's their own fault. They were too trusting.

    I wonder whether writing books can save the world. I don't think so. As someone said, 'the only people who can save the world are the Christians, they just don't know it.'

    It came to my attention that Alexander Solzhenitsyn died a while ago. He was a tragic figure. Someone who was the darling child of the West up until that fateful point where he gave the speech 'a world in two halves', which warned the Americans what was coming for them if they persisted in their rapid transition into an athiest state. He warned that, in a nutshell, they were going to turn into an overlegislated, Godless hellhole. I must ask whether they are not already standing at the threshold of his prediction. That speech practically finished his career in the West. Amusing that people enjoy stories about how horrible athiest Russia was, yet they reacted with anger when he declared that this was the true face of their shining future.
I realised with annoyance that I mispelt the name of his speech in N.A.M.

    If no-one listened to him, why would anyone listen to me? People don't want to be told the storm is coming. No-one smiles at the weatherman who announces a hurricane. Given this factor, why has the world so easily embraced the concept of 'man induced climate change'? I believe the answer lies in that, even more than being told good things lie in store, man enjoys being told that he, in his godlike power, has the ability to save the world and himself through his actions. It's undercurrent neo-paganism, pure and simple. When it comes to it; Paganism, Christianity - one has to go. And let me tell you, Hell will freeze over before Christianity goes.

    what does that make me? A faker, quite brutally. Someone who wears a mask to hide his true thoughts. Who communicates through formless ramblings filled with scattered razor blades. Who considers someone unwilling to listen past a rambling introduction an unworthy audience. A fool?

    So, when many are dead, and the world hasn't come to an end after all, I'll be shaking my head, saying 'told you so.'

    In other thoughts, I found a massive bug in T&A mere hours after releasing beta 3. Naturally, I've had to wait a week before fixing it. Also, I am seemingly unable to crawl out from the massive pit I dug for myself in the 'Why Genetic Programming is Barely Evolution' thread on Moddb.com. And the twisted irony is that I know perfectly well what I should say, just as I knew perfectly well how N.A.M. should have been written; my incoherency and rambling get in the way, along with the fact that 90% of what I say is blatantly misunderstood. Ah, such is life.

    Well, I've been re-inventing myself, in a way. I have a recurring realisation, yet maybe it's just paranioa, that Nightmare Architect Mabase is just rambling rubbish. Then I remember that much of it is factual, which is even more depressing. So far, zero people have commented. Seriously, if you actually either like or hate the story, just email me, leave a comment, or just say SOMETHING. I'd much rather be bashed than ignored.

    I think a lot about this whole 'kids with
cancer' fiasco. Many might want to punch me for
this, but think it over: people trust in
scientists to find a 'cure' for leukemia and
all the other saddening diseases suffered by
all humans.
    Perhaps I'm wrong, but I cannot think of
a more pointless exercise than trying to
'cure' cancer.
    These, as I understand them, are some
facts:

    Childhood vaccinations are a major
cause of cancer. This is actually not
even worth disputing: the preservatives
used are carcinogens, much less the rest.
    Microwave ovens cause cancer in far
greater quantities than appreciated.
    Wheat, in all its forms, is known
to cause cancer in certain individuals.
    Fluorescent lights, if uncovered,
cause melanomas.

    If you have cancer, find a doctor,
note their coordinates, then run in
the exact opposite direction: people
have suffered enough with the many
debacles of the medical profession.
    I think of AZT, which killed
everyone who used it.
    It's difficult to figure out which
is more tragic: that people die of
cancer, or that they are killed by
the very system which is supposed to
be curing them.

    But, anyway, I can't decide if
it matters. People are free to give
their money to whomever they please.
    Just sad that they'll all die
of a disease that isn't cancer.

    People have a faith in medicine
which is staggering, to be frank.
No matter how much it fails them,
they still return, hoping for healing.
    It's a case of accepting things
merely because they existed before
us, most likely: however, if it
actually conflicted with personal
interest, the story would be
different....

    On an even sadder note, I was
informed by a medical acquaintance
that, during a trip through Europe,
a girl who was on another team
fell ill with Meningitis. She is
now brain damaged.
    He agreed that it was likely
that she had developed the condition
because she had taken routine
vaccinations before travelling:
he pointed out that travellers
should never be vaccinated, as
the vaccines destroy the person's
immune system, rending them
susceptible to any and all diseases.
    Quite why she should have taken
the shots in the first case is
something he agreed was difficult
to define. He mentioned that his
son had developed a back tumour
after an influenza vaccine a
few years ago.
    It's interesting that more
cats die of cancer from rabies
vaccines than cats die from
being bitten by rabid animals.
The ratio of deaths to shots
is 1 to 10,000.

    When this all explodes, I'll be
able to sadly shake my head and
say, "Told you so."

News, May Blog 1, 2009:

First up, it's rotten how someone felt
the need to hack darkscibes. Condolences
to Tom.

    Well, after serious, drastic, in-depth,
re-invention, Robert-33 has launched into
solid development and authorship.

    Nightmare Architect Mabase is tightening
with the release of part 6, so I hope. The plot
seemed frenetic and shattered beyond recognition
of what some exclusive previews of part 1
demonstrated. It is true that Crystal Dawn turning
into a girl and 'dancing around the universe killing
people' as it is so eloquently put was a little...odd.

    But, anyway, releasing Part 6 within a reasonable
time-frame proved a nightmare of sorts: in fact,
the part was undergoing frantic last revisions within
the last hour before the text was given to the
proxy for immediate uploading.
    It's largely to do with the fact that each part
is written in about an hour or so, but actually
finding a spare hour is a problem, much less
finding time to proofread the work.

    There is a lack of communication from readers.
I take it that there are quite a few regular readers
of the story: not a great number, but 'could be better'.
Perhaps this has something to do with my not putting
an email address on the stories: but my email is
included with my profile, therefore that is little
excuse.

    Where is N.A.M going? That is a secret. But
there is a definite goal to this plot, even if
some die before they see its outcome. Haruko and
Rothem - there seems to be a tension between them.
After all, Haruko has had up until this point a
degree of control over Naota on the merit of the
fact that she is a very persuasive, charismatic,
seductive girl. We have learnt that Crystal Dawn
had a quite disturbing facet to his personality,
in that he he waits eagerly for the complete
destruction of humanity courtesy of the
first and last ultimate world leader, aka. The
Antichrist.
    N.A.M.'s and S.W.V.'s parts are actually in
serious need of revision. There are many small
text errors: invalid tenses and such.

    Searching Wounded Valentine was a move in a
different direction - it's hard to describe
exactly what the ethos of the work is. But
it is a change from other Robert-33 work.

    Humanity Contemplations was improved by
the addition of Part 2. This marked the
re-invention of Robert-33, a new, more determined,
more knowledgeable, enigmatic figure. It was suggested
that Robert-33 'post-Vangor' is actually a different
person to 'pre-Vangor aka. 2005-2008 & early 2009'.
It is left to you to decide.
    What is the meaning of Part 2? It is complex,
and perhaps would make good music lyrics. But
beware, hopefuls, the entire body of part 2 is
actually a carefully woven minefield of very hated
political and sociological opinions. The opinions
themselves are amazingly peaceful, but I am
fairly certain that if 'Not what you think' got
into the American Top 40, and then people learnt
what it is about there would be venom to spare
from certain someones. (Of the 'bring back the
lions' variety, I'm told.)

    And The Eva Verses...they are still on EvaFanFics.org.
I am contemplating bringing them over to Darkscribes as
a single unit, saving Tom having the latest releases list
being inundated with Volume 1,2,3,4,5,6,7.
But I will see what happens. There does exist a eight
volume of the Eva Verses, intended for release
December 2008. It was never fully shown to ANYONE.
A section, Valentine's Day, was used in Humanity
Contemplations.

    In other areas, development on the Far Cry
total conversion 'Perfect Dark - The Ancient Pathways'
has begun. Things are proceeding nicely, one is willing
to view 'slow' as nice. A technology demo release is
planned for September 2009 at the earliest.
    In an interesting twist, this shows that Robert-33
may be very slow to respond, he comes through in some
unrecognisable form eventually: The mod is actually the
'evolution' of 'Evangelion slash Perfect Dark', a story
he was in the process of writing back in 2006. The story
was never released, and although it has been made clear
that almost no-one actually understands the concept
of evolution correctly, the mod is 'changed through a
shift in environment' As in that it could not exist as
a Perfect DarkEvangelion book, yet it will survive as
a videogame which, in true natural selection has lost
most of it's Evangelion content.

    "HUH! MOST OF IT'S EVA CONTENT? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?"
    "Heh, that's another secret."

    That's all until next time.

    Robert-33.

=====================================

    "The me you see, you will not see.
    "I'll waste away so elegantly.
    "All the while a victim of my own
elaborate scheme."

Am I the only one who blogs apart from Tom?

Anyway. Had massive setback when formatting was stripped, making HC2 and SWV almost
unreadable. Sorry all.

This site is going well.

It is nice to see Darkscribes flourishing. Tom has done
very well in bringing over the essence of EvaFanFics.
And now if only I'd receive more mail....

ps.
And Dan from Fightstar has SEELE etched in his guitar
on the live BBC performance of Mercury Summer.

Evafanfics.com tribute:

Condolences. I wish it never was like this.
The lights are gone. Is there a chance?

How did this happen? The brighter it burns
the quicker it fades: distraction, devotion,
and a parting of ways.

If I could have done anything, it would have
been felt. I see what I should have seen.
Now the machines are dusty and lost. The
shadows of a legacy.

How did this happen? The brighter it burns
the quicker it fades: distraction, devotion,
and a parting of ways.

The change. Somewhere else they gather.
Greatness and fame, have they the power?
I will go with them, and do what I do.

Another day.

I'd just like to say a little something about Vasya. What are they?

The kind of group able to give New Science a heart attack.

Part 5 will be released soon - it's gonna be good.

Fighstar & Evangelion

March 5, 2009 | No Comments Posted

Robert-33 has decided do a little
semi-journalism about the subject
of the Evangelion themes and
references in the music of the
British group Fightstar.

Why? Because no-one else to date
has bothered to do anything vaguely
deep. (Unfortunately, this really
isn't deep enough, either....)

FIGHTSTAR EVANGELION REFERENCES:

This is not a complete, thorough
analysis of every Fightstar song,
but as many would know, Robert-33
is someone who knows many things
the average person is ignorant of.
Robert-33 may eventually take the
time to write a thorough EvaFstar
synopsis, replacing this thrown-
together- in-under-an-hour-
one.

:::A general overview by Album:::

--They Liked You Better When You Were Dead--

    Palahnuik's Laughter:
    In the video, the bassist has
'Neon Genesis' written on his bass guitar.
There is a big explosion. Some would say
that's them all going to hell,
some would say that's some kind of stylised
secondthird impact. Who knows? Palahniuk is a
writer, as many would know. 'Fight Club'
is one of his better-know works. However,
I don't believe this was the song's original
title: it was, I hear, "Swimming against
the flood."
    Lyrically, line of interest is:
    "If I see this all again, I'll try to
take my time. I wonder how fast you can
drive(NB: it might be 'dry' not 'drive').
    Is this some kind of reference to the
scene from the Evangelion manga, where they
drive away from Tokyo 2 at high speed?

    No comment on other T.L.Y.B.W.Y.W.D
tracks. Amethyst is possibly linked,
for the simple reason that Amethyst is
a kind of purple.

--Grand Unification--

    To Sleep:
    This track is eerily similar to
the intro track of the album 'Yui' by
the Mexican group Childs. It reinforces
the alternate rendering of G.U., and that
is that it is about sleep, fear,
nightmares, pleasant dreams, then waking
up to face the future.

    Grand Unification I:
    What this track has got to do with
Evangelion is very, very uncertain. It
essentially does share thematic similarities
to NervSeele. The idea of defiance. The
lyrics screamed near end of song are almost
indecipherable without help.

    Waste A Moment:
    Well...this is very similar to Grand
Unification I. Video used tunnel used
also by the Prodigy. Is probably not
very related to Eva.

    Sleep Well Tonight:
    Another track with sleep as its
central theme. The theme of 'making
a stand' which does have Evangelion
implications. That theme recurs in
later songs, including O.D.S.T.W.A.B.Ys
tracks.
    There is also the line "...I could stay
the *SAME!* [* indicates Charlie's breathy
scream] This has the implication within
the Eva theme of third impact.
    After the 'awesome' solo, (NO, that
is NOT sarcastic, it is skilled guitar work)
Charlie sings, "If we could take away the
summit, we could climb the highest we've
ever been to."
    This could be in some way related to
the principle of man becoming God through
the grand unification. Which, on a minor
point, if we infer there already is a God,
the 'we've ever been to' does carry the
thought that they are removing the summit,
then shifting into that place. But, I
won't go into the labyrinth of issues
surrounding that aspect of mystic
evolutionary theory.

    Paint Your Target:
    The boy with headphones in the video
for the song is reminiscent of Shinji Ikari.
    When he turns around at the very end,
although the footage I have seen is very
blurred, it distinctly looks as though his
pupils form a cross. Lyrically, the song
seems to be about how crap the British
education system is. (Don't feel bad, Charlie,
the Americans have an equally, if not much
crappier one, and so do the Australians.)
However, it really could be about almost
anything. Guns, (Which are cool, no matter
what anyone says) Children with gattling
guns (Not a very good idea) Missile launchers,
(Very cool) destroying public property,
(Possibly cool, depends on structure) And the
thing where the child whispers something to
the girl standing under the window.

    Build an Army:
    The song talks of machines. If you
want to be simplistic, the Evas are machines.
    Crushing empires is thematically
appropriate. The song is similar to 'Tannhauser'.

    Lost Like Tears in Rain:
    Well...with the pretty firm 'Neon Genesis'
closing line, along with 'born from angels',
'it came down to save us', and 'let's start
this all over again'. Yes...it does have
SOMETHING to do with Eva, but apart from the
line 'Neon Genesis', it could be about falling
from a balloon, or getting stuck in a movie
theatre showing a stupid film. Or even
Blade Runner.

    Last Conversation:
    'time that we have left' na na na. Yes,
it's got something to do with Eva. I don't
have enough time to pick apart these songs,
sorry. Include 'Open Your Eyes' under this
heading.

    Mono:
    Well, the line 'I've started up this
race' could POSSIBLY have something to
do the the Apostle Paul's, 'running the
good race' letter. In other comments,
the backmasking (Please don't get angry,
Charlie - I know most bands hate their
backmasking being written on the
internet.) says:
    "Fear is constant, life is a challenge."
It's probably a quote from somewhere,
but kudos if it's an original sentiment.
    Also, lines such as, 'now we're not
the same' could be to do with anything,
really, (Leaving Busted, buying a new
brand of hair dye, who knows?) I will
suggest, though, that it is Eva-centric.
    Screaming in the ending sounds like,
"Well I couldn't help myself...' then
the rest is too uncertain to decipher.
Could be 'escape, again' or anything.

    Hazy Eyes:
    The video gives no clues. Seems
to centre around the issue of the
evils of surveillance, something also
covered in 'English Way'. The lyrics
are usually interpreted to mean the
deaths of one or more of the main
characters in Evangelion. However,
Charlie could really be singing about
anything; like sentience in non-human
life, much which does not exist is read
into unrelated things.

    Grand Unification II:
    This could be about 2nd3rd Impact,
or it could be Charlie actually believing
Al Gore. Who knows? Charlie knows,

    Wake Up:
    More on making stands, more on
sleep related topics. Who has the
answers? And such. Ends with main
protagonist awakening. Then the
album ends. Pirates scratch their
heads, all us videogame designers
who bought legit hard copies instant
make a beeline for the nearest
copy of Audacity to look for
backmasking, and to (unsuccessfully)
filter out the distortion on
screamed lines.

    Time for an intermediate bit: the
singlesone offs:

--non LP stuff--

    Gracious:
    This came on the 'W.A.F.N'
single, which I possess. The song
seems to be about spitting on the
world, (or wanting to) the Final
Judgement, and 'making it easier
for us'.

    'NervSeele' & 'Shinji Ikari':
    Ho hum, this is solid, is it
not? Except for the utter ambiguity
of the tracks, and the lack of
accurate lyrics. (Next Robert-33
project?)
   
   'NervSeele' could be hypothetically
considered Charlie Simpson's take on
the Evangelion subject, whereas 'Shinji
Ikari' is Alex Westway's take on the
same, but relating to an individual's
contemplation, rather than a collective
exchange of anger presented from the
point of view of an individual also,
ironically.

    Thought - Shinji doesn't smoke.

    This is admittedly only hypothesis.
Also, very little information is publicly
available regarding Alex's religious
views, but it is ironic that he never
sees to say 'fuck', whereas the 'Christian'
Charlie Simpson seems to have no qualms.
  However, it is not wise to draw
absolute conclusions from external evidence.
This aspect very well be because Charlie
does most of the singing, much to the
'Charlie is still on Busted ego trip'
detractor's chagrin.

    But, the over-arching sense in
'NervSeele' is of: angerhatefighting
against an impersonal force trying to
'take this away from me'. Is this
speaking abstractly of the evolutionary
unification taking away the individuality
of the singer?
    In 'Shinji Ikari', the feeling
is more of: contemplationsorrow
saying last goodbyes (Why they didn't
take the plunge and sing 'sayanora'
rather than 'goodbye' is a matter of
pure speculation, leading to all sorts
of possibilities; including that they
never actually watched Eva in
Japanese.)and is slightly similar to
'Unfamiliar ceilings' in aspects.

    It is very difficult to be certain.
Anything from the band 'the Fray' contains
many eerily Evangelion-esque lyrics, yet
no-one seems to have made any connection.
(ps. If someone finds 'the Fray love Eva'
on Wikipedia, it was written here first!)

    The difficulty is that Eva covers so
many emotions, so many ideas, that almost
any song can actually be set to footage
from Evangelion; the FMV scene shows this.
If I see another k* **** AMV...(ellipses
of veiled threat to power of 18 cubed)

    Also many did not notice, it
sounds distinctly as though Charlie
is growling 'Sodomite' at the end.
Is this so? The internet lyrics never
mention it.

    Dark Star:
    This song has the lines
'there are chains to hold it down' and
'Firefight. When everything's dead and
gone, we'll find a place to hide from
the bright lights'. So it probably
has something to do with Eva.

    Now, to the next LP.

--One Day Son, This Will All Be Yours--

Slightly out of order tracks--

    We apologise for nothing:
    In the video, is the man
and woman playing cello and violin
in any way a reference to Evangelion?
Lyrics are ambiguous.

    99:
    The lyrics are always misprinted,
but they seem to have little to do
with Evangelion. The name 99 is
apparently to do with a laptop
keyboard not working after being
dropped down some stairs. It could,
however, be a faint, if unconscious
reference to 1999, the year before
second impact.

    Floods:
    This one is ambiguous. It is
meant for a British film, and it
also does have relevance to Eva.
    However, the overall feel is an
acceptance of this unjustified paranoia
sweeping the globe that global
warming is a real threat which must
be acted to prevent, just like
the 1970s ice age, and the Y2K bug.
But that is another issue, one which
is not worth dying for.

    One Day Son:
    Zombies. Dead people walking.
The line 'when there's no room in
hell, the dead will walk the earth.'
No obvious Eva link.

    Deathcar:
    This one is pretty self explanatory.
Deathcars are Chinese unconsenting organ
donor vans. The Chinese government gets
up to all sorts of things; this is just
the tip of it, and yet the world just
eats its Happy Meal. The song is also
supposed to be related to Charlie's
girlfriend leaving him. Lyrically,
some of the opening screaming needs
deciphering, because all the internet
versions are almost completely wrong.

    I Am The Message:
    Making a stand, which seems to
be something Fightstar never tire of
singing about. The most tight, clear
song in the Fightstar catalog. Phrases
such as 'Angel, you mean nothing to
me' are countered by 'Halo, you mean
nothing to me'. So the Evangelion
relevance is uncertain.

    You & I:
    This has possibly got something
to do with the ending of Evangelion.
Because of this, the fact that the
central line is shared with '99'
is taken by some to indicate that
99 does, after all, have Evangelion
relevance.

    Amaze Us:
    This song is unusual. It can be
interpreted in an Eva related way:
'the Beast', a phrase actually
ripped straight from the book of
Revelation. "And they wondered at
the beast." 'Wonder' is very similar
to 'Amaze', which is interesting.
    So, essentially, when Charlie
is singing 'You amaze us all with
the hope that you bring' is very
akin to the prophecy that the
anti-Christ, aka. the Beast, will
offer breathtaking peace and hope,
in the form of solutions to all of
Earth's problems, to the nations
of the earth. They will be filled
with praise and admiration at the
hope he brings. This is essentially
what the Eva Unit 1 is actually
achieving, also. So they both are
'protector's' with very evil
natures.

    H.I.P (Enough):
    What is this? This seems to
be a warning of the hope turning
to bloody violence. And the fact
that this is what was intended
all along. And, many noticed that
'Human Instrumentality Project' is
formed by the initials. Another
slightly strong indication that
Fightstar never checked the facts
surrounding Eva's translation.
'Human Completion Project' is
the more 'correct' translation,
although Anno admittely made
'Instrumentality' the English
language phrase. Their call.

    Tannhauser:
    Well...this one is odd. It's
the sacrifice of self, the choosing
of a saviour, the probable damaging
of Charlie's vocal cords. Its theme
is of an old German mystic, so far
as I know.
    A very immoral mystic, at that.
The link between him and Charlie is
unclear, but the 'German' thing does
link it slightly to Eva.

    One Last Common Ancestor:
    The name is tricky, and can
be spun two ways; 'common ancestor'
to the Evolutionist means the being
all human races evolved from. To the
rest, it is a common ancestor of all
peoples, Adam, or in a limited sense,
Noah. Really depends on whether
Charlie and the guys are Evolutionarily
inclined or not. The song is a ballad
of sorts, and doesn'tseem to have too
much to do with Eva, although the title
does have implications within Eva.

    Unfamiliar Ceilings:
    Hmm...this is an offbeat song
from Fightstar. Apart from making
some people snigger at 'flowerpots and
dirt' the song is simple and works.
    Honestly, this song is ambiguous
and could really be talking about
anything. Still, ambiguity is better
than:

'And we'll all go forth and fight
the Angels! Yea, Yea! Aim and
fire! She's a liar! Faster, higher;
demon crier! Yea, Yea! Into places
where the angels fear to tread,
and where the voices get inside
my head."

'Cough, [Robert-33 hides pencil and
paper] cough.'

--Be Human--
    The new LP isn't out yet.
The two videos released, 'English Way'
and 'Mercury Summer' do not seem to
have any Evangelion centric lyrics
or themes. If there aren't any Eva
songs on 'Be Human' a good deal of
people are going to be disappointed.
Still, it's their music, and there's
nothing worse than being slaves to
public opinion.

Anyway, that's it for now. But one
last note:

    Is Charlie Simpson a 'real'
Christian?:

    To be cold and honest, there is a
90% chance Charlie isn't a Christian,
for the simple reason that the Alpha
course doesn't explain to people why
they need to be saved, and what is
involved with repentance from their
sins. It is essentially brushed up,
new age influenced, Roman Catholicism.
But, I cannot say with confidence
whether Charlie is or is not. I
hope so, for his sake. It is tragic
to be so close to the truth, yet be
so far from understanding it. Like
a life jacket without straps.

Ironies.

Part 3 of N.A.M has been released, and I face the twisted fact that
currently more people read this blog than read the stories!

I'm working on many small projects, and if you play Far Cry PC,
then check out SOLDIER. Also, actually read N.A.M, and give
feedback...or something.

What is happening.

I hope that NAM is liked. What else can I say?
Part 2 is different to part 1. Part 3 will be even
more different. This is more than fluffy fiction

Book late.

Oh, well. In between putting together an eight part to the Eva Verses, writing extensively
on the several subjects in various internet forums, and working on three different Far Cry
modifications at once, the book is behind schedule.

Naturally, it will be like nothing you have ever read. Think strange science, the group named
Saca, and Vasya Computer Industries, and our seeming main person, Greys.It will be eight part.
Much work is going into ensuring that the original FLCL characters are not overwhelmed by the newness.

We'll have to see how it turns out.

Upcoming book.

This is simply announcing that part 1 of the new book: "Nightmare Architects Mabase" is
nearly finished. It is a FLCL book, with aspects from 'Cryptic', by own IP. Expect something
thoughtful, new, and yet same Robert-33.
