Yah, it'll be fun to come up with ideas about their alliance in future. The
idea was thrown out for comic releif before.

I'm not sure about that. I guess I should give a low down on the thoughts I
had on the SMs a little further down.

Oh yeah, when I was working for corporate America (I won't name the company,
but it rhymes with Fate Starm), I thought about this stuff non-stop. It
helped the time go by. Lesson learned; life is too short- take the risks
that will make you happy, but I digress....

Let's keep this thread going in .aquazone. Though it may appear the two of
us are having a lone conversation, someone may have a cool idea who's been
reading along. I want the Sea Monkeys to be owned by the Lugnet community
since its conception was born from it.
Let me give some brief thoughts about the way I had been thinking about SMs
and that might aim our building ideas. I had envisioned thier telepathey as
limited; so, the SMs of a village could communicate with each other
unlimited, but further distance would require technical assitance (like some
kind of telepathy enhancement device). Telepathy is weird; a lot of our
society is based on the quest to communicate ideas through words and art.
But, in a society where they could read thoughts and emotion, the social
interaction would have to be totally different. So, what is important to
SMs? If they're fighting the spacers, then why? Is there something they
understand that humans don't?
As far as building, I wanted to throw something up on the site with
suggestions. For example, SMs probably wouldn't have wheeled vehicles. I
also think SM creations should look as organic as possible. But I'm open
for suggestion.
