Re: The Mechanical Messiah and Other Marvels of the Modern Age

I have a theory that JD is actually a time traveller, a bit like Kirk and co in Star Trek 4, and is carefully timing his posts to give Robert a leg-up in producing the new books... To what end, I have not yet discovered - but I shall plunder his bins until the truth can be told!!
 
I'm not sure that would stand up in court, but it's a good start Smiling

Nick, I have been trying to contact you via the message service here but it does not work. Email me (or do you have my email?)

Ah, there you have the advantage of me!I do now.  I tried a little lateral thinking earlier on*, and sent an email to Rachel's address - but unfortunately I don't have your address.
 
I've sent you another message with my address in the subject line, which should be readable - if it's not then you can get me on removed, no need now!
 
Cool

What a happy co-incidence, I shall be attending The Asylum and would thus be happy to offer my services as a Steward for the evening in repetition of last year Smiling

Is there to be a Sprout launch too, or just the Asylum one?
When can we expect the proofs to start appearing?
