I wonder why there isn't a bookstore here in the[ST:n ]commercial district. You know? Some place where I[ST:n ]could pick up old books from Earth?[ST:wait ] |

I know a lot of that data was lost when the White[ST:n ]Whale crashed, and that what remains has yet to be[ST:n ]organized in any kind of meaningful way...[ST:wait ] |

But for the sake of New LA's current residents as well[ST:n ]as future generations, we have a duty to make such[ST:n ]texts available to any who want them.[ST:wait ] |

Plus then I could finally get my hands on that book I've[ST:n ]been looking for about the French Revolution! Anyway,[ST:n ]yeah... I really hope they open a store like that soon.[ST:wait ] |

Well, for now I guess I'll just search the provisional[ST:n ]government's public database.[ST:wait ] |

|
qev015891_MSG0006 |
There's got to be someone around here who would[ST:n ]know how to find the data I'm looking for, right?[ST:wait ] |

|
qev015891_MSG0007 |
Pulling anything out of all that raw data is such a[ST:n ]damn hassle. It'd help if I knew where to start looking.[ST:wait ] |

Say that a Prone named Sajif Scoppio could help.[ST:wait ] |

Urge Beats to find the data himself.[ST:wait ] |

|
qev015891_MSG0008 |
What, seriously? The Prone read books?[ST:n ]...I figured they'd just eat 'em or something.[ST:wait ] |
| 13 |
|
qev015891_MSG0009 |
And you're saying that this Prone is actually interested[ST:n ]in Napoleon? That is so...unexpected.[ST:wait ] |
| 14 |
|
qev015891_MSG0010 |
You know, the title of my undergraduate thesis was[ST:n ]\"The Crimes and Punishment of Napoleon.\"[ST:wait ] |

qev015891_MSG0011 |
I hold some pretty critical opinions about the guy,[ST:n ]so I'm not sure if your Prone buddy and I would see[ST:n ]eye to eye.[ST:wait ] |
| 16 |
|
qev015891_MSG0012 |
But I'd sure like to talk to him and find out![ST:n ]Anyway, thanks for the tip. I really appreciate it.[ST:wait ] |

qev015891_MSG0013 |
Yeah, I guess it's always when you're searching for[ST:n ]some specific book that you end up chancing upon[ST:n ]new discoveries and bits of knowledge.[ST:wait ] |
| 18 |
|
qev015891_MSG0014 |
So maybe I shouldn't resist doing the searching myself.[ST:wait ] |
| 19 |
|
qev015891_MSG0015 |
All right, you've convinced me. I'll just have to think[ST:n ]back to the days I spent wandering my college library[ST:n ]in search of reference material.[ST:wait ] |
| 20 |
|
qev015891_MSG0016 |
And I suppose while I'm at it, I can put in an official[ST:n ]request for someone to start organizing the data.[ST:wait ] |
| 21 |
|
qev015891_MSG0017 |
That way, future generations will more easily be able to[ST:n ]learn about humanity's history.[ST:wait ] |
