A lot of you are from this country, right? That is, on your home world version of Earth. Even though I've been in this world for a few years, now, I haven't seen much of the US at all. Are the other states and big cities here like the ones you remember? What are they like? I...

Mmm, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to say why I'm asking, would it? I'm trying to narrow down where I want to go, but it's pretty tough when they do such a good job painting every campus like it's a marvel of the modern world. So... anything you might know would be a great help.

Thanks.

A shame, isn't it.

[dragony]

I'm sure my bewildered doctors would have appreciated a solution that simple, yes.

[xuffasch]

As would Occam.

[dragony]

Occam?

[xuffasch]

As in, Occam's Razor. The simplest solution is most often the correct one.

The man it was named after was actually named William of Ockham. But things get corrupted, over time.

[dragony]

Oh, I think I've heard that phrase before. But believe me, I wish that some simple solution was correct enough to fix it.

[xuffasch]

I suppose in our general situation, the chaotic makes more sense, anyhow.

[dragony]

Yes, that's true.

[xuffasch]

So, have you come to a decision then? About wherever you want to go?

[dragony]

I have a few places to start, but I haven't decided for myself just yet.

[xuffasch]

I prefer the South Pacific.

It's warm.

[dragony]

I'd prefer something like that, too. I'm pretty sick of winters as cold as these.

[xuffasch]

The snow I could definitely do without.

Hong Kong is interesting too, but not the place to go for better weather.

[dragony]

Hong Kong? I've never been... what's it like there? Aside from unfavorable weather.
