Aeryn Pip If we girls in gray go? Well..... I guarantee we'll get a better return on our transaction than "one for one", one way or another! Not all means are naughty . . . but a LOT are . . . Work something on the side and save an "answer" for later. There's more than one way to de-shell a prakik, as my mother always used to say. . . . Anyway. . . on another matter that's sorta related . . . Oh, it might be difficult and I-I admit that I and my sisters are still not totally . . . comfortable with it all (really weird), but then again I've seen or-or heard about systems like it. Oh, I'm not talking about barter! Done that dren a LOT out in the Uncharted territories. I'm talking about me being . . . rich and what those riches are based on!! Look, I had tried for being rich and knew that IF I ever managed to get rich I'd . . . live well, shall we say. But just a short while ago I had been looking death in the face on Mo . . . on my Moya. Had pretty much "put to paid" any hopes of a future of luxury and richs! Had pretty much put decided to at least, if I must die, to ahve some FUN before . . . But instead, after a really weird series of events, I'm rich? . . . As you humans say out there back on Earth (whichever one you talk about) would say: "Holy Shit!" And then there is what my wealth is based upon! I'd heard of this system. Never seen any worlds where it was in use and gotta say that from rumors it was used only on really remote (and small) worlds. Specks, really. But with this "replicator" technology, being able to zap up any (or almost any) kind of metal or gem, I can see just HOW we'd see IF the money system I'm used to--don't understand that dren system those Star Trek freks use--then a system based upon ENERGY is a good choice . . . I guess. Strange circumstances finding myself rich with a really freaky kind of currency. . . . . Throw in being forever young and vital? A job (heh, me with a job? Heh!) that promises adventure? There are worse fates.
