Curse the Atlantic Ocean!

Gah...IndeMaat, what have you done? *swats bunnies* No, go away! I don't even watch Heroes!

Both those dates sound good, though I'll have to check at home. Hope this works out!

We're definitely interested, and will probably be able to get there at least for the Saturday. You might have a problem if you're looking for it to be down in London -- the hub of PPC activity in the UK seems to have moved up north of late. Still, hopefully lots of people will come down.

My knowledge of Charmed is non-existent, and my knowledge of Twilight is pretty damned sparse. Also, did I spy RL/SB/JP in there? Dammit, why do people insist on gay orgies on Gryffindor Tower?

Suppose I'd best actually have a dekko at the thing then... Wish me luck.

I've got a bunch of PPC things, and things not-PPC, that I'm writing currently, but I'll get to work brainstorming for that and trying to begin it as soon as I can, probably once I've done this mission I'm working on. Thanks again, I'll be sure to give it a try.

...usually our own houses, which is why we never get out and never meet people. Sorry. :P

I only suggested LotR type senerio because that is what is on people`s minds with the DLG. I would love to read it!

School has finally caught up with me, which explains my two-week absence from the Board(s). It's probably going to continue like that, so I apologize to anyone who was expecting my presence or participation for various things.

The good news is that I have my weekly schedule for my London spring course. I'm really interested in meeting as many of you fine PPCers as possible. Right now it looks like the best time for a Gathering would be the weekend of May 9 and 10, since I have both days completely free, but I have other free times, too, if that doesn't work for enough people. Please let me know if you're interested. I'll keep an eye on this thread. If you need/want it, my e-mail is exswyzie14 (AT) yahoo (DOT) com.

But my snark is a boojum.

I never liked the original series, and this entire film has me angry. For one thing, because the Trek TOS had seven movies, Next Generation had three of four, but DS9 and Voyager haven't had ANY, and they're making another TOS?

And the actors... bah. They were picked for their looks. The entire thing looks like a disaster waiting to happen. I'm not even going to see it. I dread the Suefics that are going to be spawned by this, but as I take only TNG, DS9 and Voyager missions, it's not really my problem. Thankfully.

*end rant*

do you know anything about "Charmed"?

Anybody's help in any way. But now those days are gone and I'm not so self assured...

Okay, okay, I'll stop. Sorry. Anyway, that sounds interesting, Leto, I could probably try it if you wanted, though less Lord of the Rings-y. Maybe he's a League Flower in charge of trying to make Agents go rogue/defect?

I know no other way to describe this, so I'll just use the fic summery


"Crossover with Charmed and Twilight: After Harry's mother gives him up at the age of two he finds himself in the an abusive foster home with the 9 Halliwell children. He takes them and runs to Forks where his father finds him. EC/HP SB/JP/RL SS/LP"

Mind meld v looking into the brain to see how it works.

The question now is: if Sylar would have been able to do Spock's mind melds, would he have gotten his hands dirty opening up so many brains?

7 male members and 37 female members? Whoa, I already suspected that girls outnumbered guys in the PPC, but I had no idea that it was by THAT much.

Where are all those snarky, nerdy girls? I can't seem to find many of them in my offline life :(

Not a trekkie either, but I rather like Star Trek. Maybe I'll go see this one.

Let's see if I can forget for about two hours that Spock is NOT Sylar.

The first documented sight of the name of `Mary Sue` was in a Star Trek fic, if my facts are correct.

Star Trek is comming out with a new movie:

It looks really awsome (no I am not a trekkie), though I can see all the fan girls lining up now because of the actors that they chose.

Thanks a lot. I'll show her that if the topic rises again.
I thought you got "Araeph" from a phonetic pronunciation of RAF? (You're one of the British ones, aren't you? If I got that werong, it's not meant as an insult. Really. I might have to throw all your tea into a harbor, though.)

LJ really confuses me. I can't seem to find the community you're talking about. Suggestions?

Better immature than pornographic or idiotic. My advice is to simply let the subject drop and continue writing...

...as far as the "child molester"/scary people thing goes.

There was a survey taken on the Board--most of the members at the time participated--and here are the results. (The survey was public, on the Board itself, so none of these responses would have been faked.) What are the chances that ALL of these people are lying?

Here is the short version, the summary of what it says about us:

__
Survey Summary

From the 44 surveys filled out, it is immediately apparent that the majority of the members on the PPC Posting Board are female and around 16-20 years old. It’s also obvious that they absolutely love the Board. When asked to describe the Board in three words, they say things like “marvelous”, “awesome”, “home”, “insane, entertaining, addicting” and “hellloadofFUN!”. They place a lot of importance on being nice to other members of the Board– for customs, one of the most commonly repeated answers is “be nice to others”. There’s also an insistence on giving virtual presents to new members and generally making them feel welcome. The Board is a fun and funny place, where everyone is practically guaranteed to share common interests with at least one other person. In fact, according to the people who took the survey, the people of the board are the absolute best thing- not the stories or amusing things posted, but being able to chat with people who are apparently entertaining, supportive, and intelligent. Another thing very obvious is the enthusiasm of the Board members– in my request for people to fill out surveys, I stated that I only needed 25. They filled out 44.



Oh, yeah. Gotta watch out for those 16-20 year old females! They're the worst predators out there. :D


Also, check out "PPC Meet-up stories and pictures" on the <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/theppc/20306.html">List of Everything PPC. There are records of us meeting up with other PPCers--always in safe public places, yadda yadda. We've had seven PPC meet-ups all over the world, and nothing catastrophic has happened at any one of them. In fact, in person, all of us were *gasp* exactly who we said we were! 'Cept for the names, of course. (No one ever did figure out how to pronounce "Araeph".)

And hey, if your Powers That Be still aren't convinced, they're welcome to talk to us personally, through e-mail or the Emergency PPC Board, or even the cobwebby chatroom.

Good luck!
