Dave/Chrono replies to James Belman
Greetings humanoids:
Will there be Civil War in America in 2012? I don't really care one way or the other but its traditional to ask isn't it?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well there wasn't civil war. However a group of extremist environmentalists did emerge when fossil fuel ran out and nuclear energy became the main source of energy. It doesn't really count as a civil war because they were only a small group. However they did cause quite a bit of trouble and are accountable for a few deaths. But this didn't happen in 2012.
As for there being a civil war, perhaps. Riots did take place and a group called "Licentia" started a gorilla warfare against American military bases. The members of these organizations were American citizens and launched their attacks against fellow Americans so I suppose it could be classified as a civil war.
* Thanks for your replies to my incisive questioning, don't really know whats happened to the thread while I've been off back in the 26th century, its all gone a bit shouty hasn't it? This 'Licentia' lot sound pretty dull and worthy and have even ripped off the first letter of 'Lunarium' to propogate their evil schemes. Typical!
My primary concern is the future of cake production - you state that icing has made some progress - could you elaborate please? In 2526 nano-icing shapes cakes at your telepathic request. I remember the joy I had when a particularly soggy jam doughnut metamorphosed into a sparkling iced bun in front of my eyes. Thats when I knew that I loved living in the future.
I'm sure some of you crazy kids out there read 2000AD comic - did any of you think it was strange that people in Mega City One in 'Judge Dredd' would go a bit mad suffering from 'Future Shock'? I always found that a bit strange. People going mad nowadays (probably reading Chrono's interminable posts) don't suffer 'Future Shock' compared to somebody from the 18th century do they? Discuss.
~ Anyway, the good news is my future-self Chrono Clone has succeeded in raising an allied army from the United States Of Americanada and has pushed the Lizard Men back into Russia. The bad news is his Lizard Wife has divorced him. Them's the breaks, I said to him. So its all war in the future at the moment!
## Finally - James Belman, have you been having any visits from the Time Guards?
You remember them lot from Chrono's original posts?
You can tell who they are because they wear gold jump suits, silver helmets with wings sticking out of the side and have 'Time Guard' written in Arabic (don't ask) on their backs in six inch high neon capitals? They also drive big silver hovercars with 'Time Guard-mobile' written in Arabic (again, don't ask) in 4 foot high lettering on the side and they carry ray guns? Just watch out for them, thats all the advice I have for you!
Love always Dave/Chrono
