It'd be polite of me to introduce myself, since I think only one of you knows me, but I don't really care. All of you are involved with science or technology, so you'll be useful. That's all that matters.

This is about Vulcanus. Is that enough to get your attention? If not, I don't think I need to bother with you after all.

Incidentally, if this isn't addressed to you but you're clever enough with hacking to read it anyway, you'd be useful as well.

What's the most useless power you've seen the 'Porter bestow on someone?

I've recently learned of a truly pathetic one, so I'm curious.

That's right. New science and technologies don't happen in a vacuum. They take networking and resources. And that should leave clues. Patterns.

Data mining. Totally doable.

[swordedpast]

Yeah, that's the first part.

[smarterthandad]

I'm fine with sabotage. Just copy the data first.

[swordedpast]

Naturally. I also might be able to do some hands-on investigation once you guys have turned up targets.

[Turns out Peter can do both! /awesomeface.jpg]

Naturally.
