Dave Van Domelen (dvandom) says:
There, there...they'll fit you with a Vulcan cannon soon enough, that'll compensate. Or overcompensate.
Alycia Shedd (leeshajoy) says:
Oddly enough, I was just reading about homunculus mapping on Wikipedia before I clicked over to read Skin Horse. Go figure.
Ray Dillinger (bear) says:
Dude's got a point. Well.... I guess he used to. Anyway, he's got a right to be annoyed about it.
Adam Underfoot (unnatural20) says:
He's going to be total prick about it, and I can't blame him. Frankly, the whole situation is ridickulous.
Camille Dumas (camidumas) says:
I think you meant redickuless. Although that could imply it's happened to him before.
Rob Reed (rrreed) says:
Obviously, Dr. Lee didn't think the implications of putting a human being in permanent, direct control of a military vehicle all way through. Doesn't this make Nick an employee of the U.S. armed forces, with all the benefits? His entire body is now a multi-million (billion?) dollar prosthesis that will require constant maintenance—he could bankrupt the V.A.long-term health care system all by himself! And we're reminded once again of the mysterious individual who crashed Nick's VR, "Gold Bug"…
So It Begins (soitbegins) says:
What about the Flu Bug? XD
Pete Bleackley (petethemadscientist) says:
Poor old Nick. The constant discrepancy between what he intends to say and what he hears himself saying is going to drive him round the cuddling bend.
Terry Smith (wcfan) says:
leeshajoy - where in WP? I can't find it!
Tiff Hudson (tiff_hudson) says:
I first learned of homunculus mapping in Carla Speed McNeil's King of the Cats (www.lightspeedpress.com)
Ed Gedeon (eddurd) says:
(TUNE: "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay" by Otis Redding) My world was all in my head; chorus: I know I didn't use him much,
Alycia Shedd (leeshajoy) says:
wcfan - look up "cortical homunculus." There are pictures!
Johnn Reynolds (sleepyjohn) says:
Why would he miss what he obviously never used?
Chasing Darkness (chasingdarkness) says:
Gold Bug...hmm Over thanksgiving, I was reading my nephew a Richard Scarey book (abou t cars and such) and my cousin told me that there's a little yellow bug hiding on every page called the gold bug, "Where's Waldo" stlye. *searches through recent archives* kaaaay, so much for that idea...worth a try, at least. must say, though, that i'm VERY GLAD there are no Richard Scarey refrences in Skin Horse. That would be...scarey. (oops)
John Campbell (jcampbel) says:
Look on the bright side, Nick. At least you can still say it.
