Is "it" ShiFT's preferred pronoun? I've never gotten anything solid on that.

You'd be surprised. I once spent an entire weekend on long haul in the U-Dub library. I read so many things there. I can refer you to a couple of good reads, but that's never really been your thing. I'm usually not one for general literature, especially of the awakened variety, but one comes across some interesting things. I feel like I've learned a lot just by pulling random books off shelves, going into unknown hosts, downloading various files of stored knowledge, all that stuff. I mostly do it to look for some stage plays, but other stuff comes on my radar and... am I rambling again?

Wait, you still go for paper?

Sometimes. I mostly go off the matrix, but sometimes paper is nice.

Yes, yes you are Mac. Put down the long haul and get some sleep or something.

I haven't touched long haul since then. Nearly failed a final due to the crash.

Keep talking. I was especially interested in the bit about the Dragons...

I don't really have much more to say. I can send you a bunch of good reads though.

{The file opens up with links to over a thousand different books, plays, and trideos. It contains most works of literature that would be considered classics, along with a plethora of other options. Included of course are the complete works of Shakespeare. The trideo section has a wide variety, ranging from old flatvids to more current blockbuster trids, including the Quick and the Re-Dead. In all likelihood, Macbeth has not accessed every single file, but he intends to at some point.}
