SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

: Pretty nice :) Where'd you find it?

: iirc, there's mention on the story page of some unused
: resource forks in marathon that point to the existence
: of the dreaded WindowsNT weapon; to my knowledge, it's
: not in the original. Nice to have it in here, though
: :)

The WindowsNT was indeed a weapon in Marathon 1, but it didn't make the final cut. It was going to be the shotgun, which finally appeared in Marathon 2. They decided to pull it for reasons unbeknownst to me (and I'm pretty sure anyone else).

I believe that a Pirated Copy of Copland Beta was its ammunition. ;)

Anyways, these items were pulled, but the resources stayed.. argh, if I hadn't removed M1 off my harddrive (in favor for M1A1, btw ;) http://bighouse.bungie.org/m1/), I'd copy and paste the message JJ left in the resource fork.
