9252Perhaps you will inquire,"What are Time''s literary tastes?"
44867And beyond those limits--?
44867And now, how far is it possible at the present time to speculate on the particular outline the future will assume when it is investigated in this way?
44867And suppose it was a rather important promise?
44867Are we simply separating and contrasting two sides of everybody''s opinion?
44867But suppose it was not such very great suffering we were going to inflict, but only some suffering?
44867But why?
44867How far may we hope to get trustworthy inductions about the future of man?
44867Why are we so bound to it?
44867Why should not this rising curve rise yet more steeply and swiftly?
44867Why should things cease at man?

4483841--Musical Watch, Repeating Hours and Quarters] Do you know that you do not read a public clock by the figures, but by the position of the hands?
44838As you register at the hotel you ask,--dinner?
44838But can you tell whether we are 8 years and 8 months into the 20th century or 9 years and 8 months?
44838Do n''t you see that if his clock had been set right he would have found it necessary to leave at half past five?
44838Having now found a uniform motion easily observed and of convenient period, why not adopt it as our time unit?
44838How about the date line?
44838How can there be any_ hour_ when a new day is only 30 minutes old?
44838How can this be so, since there is nothing more than 24 o''clock?
44838How did he thread the holes for these screws?
44838Now tell me what difference it would make if the answer had been 13 o''clock?
44838Now we come to the day and find that it is about the right practical length-- but what kind of a day?
44838Now, is n''t it remarkable that our 24-hour day is purely artificial, and that nothing in nature corresponds to it?
44838Secondly, why do the Japanese use no 1, 2, 3 on their dials?
44838Test yourself,--is this the year 1909, of which only 8 months have passed; or is it 1909 and 8 months more?
44838Thirdly, why this reading of the hours backwards?
44838What are the uses of jars 2 and 3, since the water simply enters them and drips out again?
44838What is the meaning of the financial almanac in which the days are numbered from 1 to 365 or 366?
44838Why did we nurse this confusion till it has become almost intolerable?
44838Why not commence work a few minutes earlier each fortnight while days are lengthening and the reverse when they are shortening?
44838Why?
44838You ask, how about ships?
44838you wish to know if the observer is likely to make a mistake?
27053Almost?
27053But if this is so, where are the rest of them? 27053 But-- Did n''t you say all you needed was another stage of power?"
27053Helen, honey, where are you?
27053How-- how could I have botched the job?
27053Using what for the connection?
27053Well--?
27053What shall we do now, Major? 27053 What''s that?"
27053What-- are-- you-- doing here?
27053Where''d you come from, boy?
27053Why do n''t you use it, then?
27053Wo n''t they talk to you, either? 27053 You''ve been sick, have n''t you?"
27053_ Five minutes_... How long has it been since I shot myself?
27053Avoiding the woman''s glance, he muttered:"Let''s see, now, that was-- uh-- how much did I say?"
27053But where, in this world of immovable things, will we find a piece of wire twenty- five feet long?"
27053Could he be blamed for drinking a little too much, if alcohol dissolved the morbid vapors of his mind?
27053Coward, eh?
27053Helen, are you in there?
27053How about it?"
27053How did he get behind the counter?
27053In the next room, they were confronted by a stern receptionist on whose desk was a little brass sign, reading:"Have you an appointment?"
27053Miller cleared his throat, said uncertainly:"I beg your pardon, ma''am-- did I say-- seventy- five cents?"
27053Walk?
27053Was all this a-- a dream?
27053We''ll lick''em, wo n''t we, honey?"
27053We''re talking and moving, are n''t we?
27053What man would n''t do those things?
27053What''s your name, boy?"
27053Where is my wife?"
27053Who was the woman he was waiting on?
27053You wo n''t ever do anything like this again, if I promise not to nag you?"
59515Are they going to hurt Thomas?
59515Are they, Summer?
59515Boy a be Summer could how? 59515 Curious, is n''t it?"
59515Do they? 59515 Gus,"I said,"can you fellows help me find out who those people are we picked up in the park last night?
59515He is n''t, Summer he''s?
59515How about this?
59515How can she? 59515 How can you transfer that into terms of human beings?"
59515How do you know that?
59515Just fade away?
59515Was it so terrible?
59515What are you doing?
59515What did she say?
59515What did she tell you, Wyn?
59515What do you see?
59515What else should I see?
59515What will she do?
59515What''s Daddy going to do to Thomas?
59515What''s happening to us?
59515What''s the matter with you, young fellow?
59515What''s wrong? 59515 Why should I know you, and where do you come from?"
59515Wyn, what do you see?
59515Wyn?
59515You mean that story you told me was the truth?
59515And as for conversation, do you remember Summer ever answering a question directly?"
59515And how long must the wig have been originally, for her to have cut from it the long tresses I found later in the wastebasket?
59515But how about the fact that such a complicated creature as man is built by the action of the genes and chromosomes?
59515Do you suppose I have amnesia?"
59515Gracey?"
59515How did you know my name?"
59515I asked hurriedly:"What is wrong with Summer, Wyn?"
59515If Summer had not encouraged me, I would n''t have been bold enough to make any advances on my own account... and where would that have left Summer?
59515In the seven years I had known her, how could I ever have built up in my mind the picture of her as a mature woman?
59515Incestuous?
59515Is n''t it funny?"
59515Just narcissistic?
59515Living normally as a younger child in one place, and as we knew her in reverse?"
59515Me?
59515My motherless son?
59515My son?
59515Or, perhaps, Jovian?
59515What about Wyn?"
59515What''s happened?"
59515What''s wrong, Don?"
59515Where in my house had she found a wig to match her own hair?
59515Why should I be tied by a marriage ceremony I do n''t know anything about yet?"
59515Why?
49651Alone? 49651 And you will?"
49651Art Lord Tedric?
49651Art hurt, Lady Rhoann?
49651Art in armor, smith?
49651Have I made it clear that I intend to stop human sacrifice? 49651 Knowst my iron sword, the one I wear, with rubies in the hilt?"
49651Think you ordinary iron can harm the personal metal of a god? 49651 WHY must man be so stupid?
49651What bargain did you make with this Llosir? 49651 What good is a god who only kills and injures?
49651Who is the most powerful swordsman among you?... 49651 Why not?
49651Why?
49651Wrong? 49651 You can, Lord?"
49651You do? 49651 ( Or were Jennies too valuable?) 49651 A virgin? 49651 And if I die now, of what worth is Sarpedion''s fraction of a metal that will never be made? 49651 And then?
49651But did he have time?
49651Can you remember them all?"
49651Can your copper helmet stop this hammer?
49651Can your girl- muscled, fat- bellied priest''s body move fast enough to dodge my blow?
49651Do you fight for pleasure or for pay?"
49651Dost like the bargain?"
49651Hast found me worthy of the god- metal, Lord Llosir?"
49651Have I your backing in wiping out what is left of Sarpedion''s power?"
49651How can we of Lomarr_ ever_ attain comfort and happiness if more die each year than are born?
49651I thought it strange, but who am I, an ordinary man, to try to understand the actions or the reasonings of a god?
49651If you make high- alloy steel, exactly what will you do with it?"
49651In what way?"
49651It is dangerous to talk?"
49651Knewst I was coming?"
49651Or art testing me?
49651Sarpedion is a great and powerful god, but art_ sure_ that his sacrifice alone will establish linkages strong enough to last for all time?"
49651Should he get his horse, or not?
49651Since when has it been against the law to have a personal god?
49651That green stone from which altars are made-- you can secure some of it?"
49651That there is to be no more of it, even to you?
49651The king himself?
49651There was a brief silence, then:"To what do I owe the honor of this visit, priest?"
49651What do you want it for-- that is, what, basically, is your aim?"
49651What do you want of me, strange god?"
49651What is it that you are trying to do?"
49651What is your name, Lord?
49651What is your thought on this matter, Furmin?
49651What was the price?"
49651Why?
49651Why?"
49651Wouldst any more of you be split like white- fish ere I go?
17759After all, what are we here to endeavor to do?
17759And why?
17759But how is the longitude of the port to be determined?
17759But to return to the reform, what are you going to do?
17759Can a majority prevail in questions, such as those we are speaking of, simply by the force of numbers?
17759Did she, as a measure of economy and in order to change nothing in her customs, propose to the world the"Pied de Roi"as a unit of measure?
17759Do I understand, sir, that the subject is dropped?
17759Do you want a striking example of what differentiates a neutral meridian from a national meridian?
17759Does the Chair understand that the Delegate of France appeals from its decision, and wishes to take the sense of the Conference upon it?
17759Does this mean that our decisions will be wholly unauthoritative?
17759Except for certain philosophical purposes, does the inherent advantage claimed in the use of even approximately accurate local time really exist?
17759First, shall we count longitude both ways?
17759Gentlemen, have these two very different functions been always well understood, and has this necessary distinction been preserved?
17759How can this difficulty of constantly changing longitudes be avoided?
17759How shall we determine a neutral system of longitude?
17759I ask, would the twenty- six nations here represented accept our recommendation to adopt the neutral meridian?
17759I would inquire of the Chair whether it would be in order for me to allude to the resolutions number 2 and 3, which have been read?
17759In what way shall it be fixed upon?
17759Is it necessary to insist on this further?
17759Is it possible to ascertain this?
17759Is not a weighing necessary to determine a chemical equivalent of an entirely different kind from that of a commercial weighing?
17759Is not all this inconsistent with reason, and at variance with the cardinal truth, that there is one time only?
17759Is our metric system neutral?
17759Is the Conference ready for the question?
17759Is the resolution adopted by a majority of the Congress the best?
17759May I ask the Delegate from Germany whether his remark applies to the amendment?
17759On what principle shall the Conference fix upon a neutral meridian, and what is a neutral meridian?
17759Second, shall we count it all around the 360 degrees?
17759Shall it be historical, geographical, scientific, or arithmetical?
17759Shall it be towards the east or towards the west?
17759Shall it, then, be concluded that there is no hope of securing uniformity in time- reckoning for practical purposes?
17759Shall we break that usage?
17759Shall we call the instant above defined the commencement of the universal day denoted by January 1 or by January 2?
17759Shall we cease to do that?
17759Shall we introduce a new system, which may or may not be found practical or agreeable?
17759Should we reach the end of the reform in complete harmony with the hopes of all the governments represented here?
17759The only question, therefore, which we have now to decide is, when shall this day of the initial meridian be considered to commence?
17759Third, if so, in which direction is the counting to take place?
17759This is said to be a neutral meridian, because it lies between Russia and America; but how long will it remain so?
17759This point being gained, is it proper for us to proceed to the adoption of such a meridian?
17759What can be easier than the method involved in the resolution of Mr. Rutherfurd?
17759What course do we follow in reckoning time?
17759What is the course before the Conference?
17759What shall be its designation and the corresponding date given to the universal day?
17759When France, at the end of the last century, instituted the metre, did she proceed thus?
17759Which way shall we count?
17759Who knows when America will step over and purchase half of Siberia?
17759Who knows when Russia will step over and reconquer the country on this side of Behring''s Strait?
17759Would it not be a little more correct if we said"at the moment of mean midnight?"
17759Would the proposed change affect any custom of undoubted value to the community?
17759Would we then have accomplished the task for which we are met?
31663A race? 31663 And how does one take the second step?"
31663And you understand that only one step can not succeed?
31663Are you so slow to learn that?
31663Are you taking care of yourself? 31663 Can you be invisible?"
31663Could I have? 31663 Did you convince your patients that it was only a dream?"
31663How are the clocks stopped? 31663 How?"
31663I wonder,said the man in the dark,"if you have read Schimmelpenninck on the Sexagintal and the Duodecimal in the Chaldee Mysteries?"
31663It is? 31663 Of what?"
31663Shall I say that mastery over liquids is not given to beginners? 31663 That easy?"
31663Was I not when I went behind the bar just now and fixed you a drink?
31663Were they satisfied?
31663What are you doing dozing at your desk, Mr. Vincent? 31663 What have you to lose?"
31663What is?
31663Why are you playing with me? 31663 And all that time would one not be tempted to wonder,''What if, after all, it ends in the next minute?''
31663And might that not also be the reason for his worsened complexion and the tireder look that appeared in his eyes?
31663And to what purpose?"
31663And when enough knowledge is accumulated on all subjects, is there not a chance that a pattern governing all subjects will emerge?
31663Are they not all stopped?"
31663Are they on a separate circuit?"
31663Are you a man, or are you something else?
31663Are you worried?"
31663But had all that early morning of his been a dream?
31663But how account for it all?
31663But just how would I go about telling a doctor what was bothering me?"
31663But the Garden which was in the neighborhood-- do you know how long the Garden lasted?"
31663But what in the name of triple time is he driving at?"
31663But why does it not satisfy you?"
31663But why is it that you overshadow and control people?
31663Can you?"
31663Could something be wrong?
31663Could you put me back into the state of my dream of a month ago?"
31663Did you actually accomplish the work of many hours?"
31663Do you believe that I can point my finger at it and stop it for you?
31663Had you been worried about your work, about being behind?"
31663Have you been here all night?"
31663Have you been to a doctor?"
31663He would come behind her and stroke her hair, and she would speak out calmly with that sort of quickening in her voice:"Who are you?
31663He would have paid for it, but how?
31663He would have timed her if he could, but how could he when all the clocks were crazy?
31663How did he know that it was early since there was something wrong with the time?
31663How do I get into the state and out of it?"
31663How would you know about my long early morning-- assuming there to have been such?"
31663If you can caress me, why ca n''t you talk to me?
31663Is it a trick?"
31663Is there anything at all I can do to help you?"
31663Just how long can a stubborn and mystified man plug away at his task?
31663Mason?"
31663Should I help myself?
31663So now will you say that you''ll destroy me?"
31663Was he really dead?
31663What is it that would stop both mechanical and electrical clocks?"
31663What race?"
31663When time is multiplied by itself, and that repeated again and again, does that not approximate eternity?"
31663Why wo n''t you let me see you?
31663You are a friend, are n''t you?
31663You had not imagined that there were only two phases of time, had you?"
32905And this?
32905And what is your name?
32905As for Doctor Satan''s having a hand in the horrible fate of Weems and the rest-- he told you beforehand that it would happen, did n''t he?
32905Ascott Keane? 32905 Doctor''s report?"
32905Gest, can you tell me if Kroner and Chichester are still out of the hotel?
32905Has n''t the doctor found out yet what''s the matter with Weems?
32905How on earth did you ever get a hint of such a thing as this?
32905If we can keep it quiet-- just for a little while-- just until----"Until what?
32905Is Mr. Gest in the hotel?
32905Is your financial statement made public?
32905Mr. Keane? 32905 My God----""What happened to him?"
32905That collection?
32905That was the time Weems was-- paralyzed?
32905There''s nothing wrong with it at all?
32905This is your Ascott Keane?
32905Watches?
32905Weems-- for God''s sake-- what''s the matter with you?
32905What about the roulette wheel? 32905 What did you do to that watch?"
32905What in the world are we going to do?
32905What''s he want a secretary for? 32905 Where are Weems and the rest?"
32905Where are they?
32905Where do you think you are?
32905Where-- am I? 32905 Who are you, sir?"
32905Why do n''t you put them to bed?
32905Why?
32905You''d give him a million eight hundred thousand in cold cash, when you do n''t even know that he has had a hand in what ails the ten?
32905You''d pay this crook our entire surplus?
32905You''re sure you did n''t touch it, and set it moving?
32905_ Figuratively_ out?
32905And what possible connection could it have with what happened to the people in that room?"
32905Are Chichester and Kroner in the hotel?"
32905Blue Bay, it was called; and it was only a summer resort.... Only?
32905But there''s only one.... Do you remember who owned this, and where he wore it?"
32905But-- you''re sure it is necessary to enter Madame Sin''s rooms?"
32905By whom?
32905Do you get a cut from Doctor Satan or something?"
32905If I kill this red- robed body, will it draw the spirit out of mortal affairs with it?
32905Madame Sin?
32905Now, you say your assistant manager was struck dead just as he said something about the roulette wheel?"
32905What are you doing in my room?
32905What dark secret of nature had Doctor Satan mastered now?
32905What in heaven''s name kept it from rolling down the steep slant and into the rounded bottom?
32905Who are you all?
32905Who is he, anyhow?
32905Why not an even figure?"
32905Why would a sphere stay on a slant?
49462A thing?
49462Art hurt, sire?
49462Bread, sire?
49462But need it be_ solid_ gold, sire? 49462 But sire,"he managed finally,"how couldst be_ that_ sure of success?
49462Canst swim, Lord Tedric?
49462Crave pardon, my lady, but other matters press...."Your evasions are so transparent, my lord; why not tell the truth?
49462Handsbreadths? 49462 Hast permission, then, to ask her to be my wife, once back in Lompoar?"
49462How do you expect to cross it, then, sire?
49462How wouldst handle the thing, if decision yours?
49462Is it possible, Lord Sir, for any human being to do anything with this foul, slimy, salvy, perverse, treacherous, and generally- bedamned stuff?
49462Knowst how lost I my skill, Tedric? 49462 Mindst not beating_ me_ but never the_ Throne_?
49462On the march? 49462 One sighting shot, sire?"
49462Sarlonian iron, no doubt?
49462Seest, father?
49462Taggad''s pavilion, of course-- where else?
49462The Lady Trycie, eh? 49462 The amphitheater?
49462Thinkst the Lady Trycie is nearby, sire?
49462What folly this?
49462What thinkst me, vixen, a spineless cuddlepet? 49462 What thinkst you, Tedric, should be next?"
49462Where now, sire?
49462Wilt give orders to build...?
49462Wouldst have said such? 49462 Wouldst permit, sire?"
49462Wouldst speed a flight with us?
49462Yes, captain?
49462Yes, father?
49462__Why, it was revealed to him by his personal god Llosir-- don''t you remember?"
49462''Tis not my age, surely?"
49462''Tis vast honor, but how?
49462A whole loaf each man a day?"
49462Above the terrible gorge of the Low Umpasseurs?"
49462And any armsmaster who threwest not arrows by hand at this range to beat both of us should be stripped of badge?"
49462And''Rhoann''merely, Tedric, remember?"
49462But handsbreadths?
49462But this''Bend''you talk of-- what is it?"
49462But to get back to the point, did you see anything new?
49462But... perhaps... could I take it now, and resign later, think you?"
49462Canst think of a better device to lure Taggad''s ill- fed mercenaries to our standards?"
49462Cross it, swing in a wide circle toward the peninsula on which sits Middlemarch Castle, and in three days...?"
49462Did any escape?"
49462Four parts of our army are of Tark-- thinkst not their first act would be to turn against us and make common cause with their brethren?
49462Hast a bag?"
49462Hast ideas?
49462How much wine do_ you_ drink, each day?"
49462I feel as much a commoner....""Commoner?
49462If so, it would necessitate the displacement of Skandos Four.__ So what?
49462Is it not so?"
49462Is it what you''ve been niggling at me to say?"
49462King Phagon, sire, wilt lead?"
49462Knowst the Upper Midvale, Tedric, above the lake?"
49462More... umm... more priestess- like, say?"
49462Nor, if you did, couldst know who it was neath all this iron?"
49462Not in your ironworks, surely?"
49462Other gods had appeared personally in the past... or had they, really?
49462Phagon frowned in thought, then went on:"Were there forces that appeared not...?
49462So what?
49462Stupid I may be, but disloyal?
49462There were terrific pressures... but say Phagon had worn steel, that day at Middlemarch Castle, and lived ten or fifteen years longer?
49462Thinkst she''d make a good priestess?"
49462We cross the Tegula at Upper Ford, not Lower....""_ Upper_ Ford, sire?
49462What said they?"
49462Where dost propose to hold such an affair?
49462Who else could it have been?
49462Who else hath the strength of arm and soul, the inner and the outer courage?
49462Why?
49462Wouldst like to be Priestess of Llosir?"
49462Wouldst not an overlay of gold suffice?"
49462Wouldst wear it so, sire?"
49462You, Trycie, are the first of my priestesses?"
59712And you pretend it means nothing?
59712Barton, for God''s sake, do n''t you realize how important this watch is? 59712 But how did he set this new arbitrary time of his?
59712But then how did the leak repair itself and the temperature return to normal?
59712Does n''t mean a thing to you does it?
59712Fun? 59712 Getting a little lonely maybe?"
59712Have n''t I been alert all the time, sir?
59712Have you ever thought that you would kill yourself?
59712How are things going, Barton?
59712Is that you, Von Ulrich, sir?
59712Is the child pretending to be asleep, or is it dead?
59712Is the child sleeping?
59712No, why should I give a damn what he''s thinking?
59712Pretending what?
59712Remember, Barton when you took your test for basketball duty? 59712 So?
59712Twenty- two years, sir?
59712What about little Joey''s future?
59712What difference does it make?
59712What do you see there, Barton?
59712What does time matter in your mother''s womb?
59712What time is it, Barton?
59712What time is it, Barton?
59712What were you thinking about when you moulded this thing?
59712What''s he doing there?
59712What''s that, sir?
59712What''s the man thinking?
59712Why not have groups of watchers if you''re so worried about one being alone?
59712Why not leave him here? 59712 Why not, sir?"
59712Why, sir, I didn''t--"But you know it''s true do n''t you?
59712You do n''t care?
59712You do n''t find the absence of women irritating, Barton?
59712You feel comfortable, no anxiety?
59712You know this man?
59712You manage to keep occupied?
59712You must have been thinking of something?
59712You still pretend it meant nothing, that it means nothing now?
59712You think I speak out of some mental senility, Zeiger? 59712 You want him to be just another stupid NCO?
59712You were n''t by any chance thinking about a dead man?
59712You what?
59712You_ want_ me to have some sort of symptom or something?
59712A damned freak, a mutation, an alien in disguise?"
59712And not only that-- who knows what unique kind of personalized time he''s developing there inside himself?
59712And what about his teeth?
59712But remember how long you lay there in that tank?"
59712Has time stopped here?
59712How can your heart beat so many times a minute, a year, a lifetime if there''s no such thing here any more?"
59712Is there any time here, Barton, when there''s nothing here to turn time into measurable segments?
59712It is n''t anything you control, or had anything to do with developing, is it?
59712It''s moving with the Galaxy but that ca n''t mean anything to you can it?
59712So what time is it?
59712Suddenly he asked,"Barton, what time is it?"
59712The dead man''s float?"
59712The heart beating every thirty- seven hours and fourteen seconds?"
59712We all hate ourselves to some extent, why should you be different from everybody else?"
59712What about my teeth protruding?"
59712What about the fact that Jean was a replacement for your mother?"
59712What about this?
59712What difference does it make what you call it as long as I''m happy in it and do my job?"
59712What does it add up to?
59712What does that mean here to me, sir?"
59712What happens to your heart- beat if your heart begins to forget how long a minute is?"
59712What if you missed an alarm, or fouled up in some way, and one of these recorders destroyed all the data?"
59712What the hell are you anyway?
59712What time was it?
59712What will happen then, Barton?
59712What''s a minute?
59712What''s it got to do with me now?
59712Where are you in all this?
59712Where did the arbitrary rhythm of that beat come from, Barton?
59712Where does that figure come from?
59712Who knows if we can even make a human comparison?"
59712Why should I?"
59712Why should n''t you?"
59712Why should your heart go on beating regularly so many times a minute-- when there''s nothing out here that gives a minute any meaning?
59712You expected to escape all responsibility and-- Barton, do you consider this basketball to be your mother?"
59712You have n''t even noticed it, have you?"
59712You want me to be personable and saleable and high on the success potential scale?
59712You want to check his fingerprints?
59712Your body works on a timetable does n''t it?
59712Your wife, your son?"
17028''Did you run? 17028 ''Did you want to talk about him now, Linda?''
17028''Is that what you want, then, ma''am?'' 17028 ''What?''
17028''You''re not going to give me any trouble, are you?'' 17028 * What if they''d decided to kill us*?"
17028* You''re* not another UE person, are you?
17028A mistake? 17028 All right, Fede, what do you want me to do?"
17028An MD? 17028 And what* is* the spirit of the thing?
17028And wo n''t you have a dirty great time, then?
17028And you have to go to California?
17028And you''re saying that I''m a sucker for putting loyalty ahead of personal gain-- after all, no one else is, right?
17028And?
17028Are n''t there any, you know, British people in London?
17028Are you all right?
17028Are you asking me or telling me?
17028Are you quite all right, sir?
17028Art, I do n''t think--"Have* any* paranoids ever been vindicated? 17028 Art, is n''t it?
17028Art, is n''t it? 17028 Art, it''s not appropriate for me to discuss other patients''histories--""Do n''t you publish case studies?
17028Art, you know that stuff is four- fifths''horseshit, right? 17028 Art,"Audie said finally, desperately,"do you think they''d let us take you out for a cup of coffee or a walk around the grounds?"
17028Art? 17028 Arthur?"
17028Arthur?
17028Audie?
17028Audie?
17028Beg pardon?
17028Boston? 17028 But I''m* your* idiot, right?"
17028But so what? 17028 But who''s going to want to use this?
17028But you''re not a shrink of any description?
17028But?
17028Ca n''t we just call it even? 17028 Can I ask you something?
17028Can I help?
17028Can you please call downstairs and ask them to send up a stretcher crew? 17028 Can you repeat it, please?
17028Can you tell my Gran where I am? 17028 Christ, you heard that, too?"
17028Cluck?
17028Could you repeat that, Tom? 17028 Did you get that exchange?
17028Did you hear what I just said? 17028 Did you need to grab your jacket, honey?"
17028Did you tell your friends about him, once you found out?
17028Did you want to talk about him now, Linda?
17028Do I get to speak?
17028Do n''t do this, OK?
17028Do n''t matter if you''ve got my name,''cos we''re all friends, right, sir?
17028Do n''t you see? 17028 Do you have Father Ferlenghetti''s number, Gran?"
17028Do you think of her, Art? 17028 Do you want to kiss me now?"
17028Does that mean you want to talk about him, or that you do n''t?
17028Erectile tissue?
17028Everything OK?
17028Everything all right, gentlemen?
17028Everything all right?
17028Everything else is all right, though?
17028Fede,he said,"Fede, this is incredible--""I figured we needed to bury the hatchet, huh?"
17028Fede-- can I call you back?
17028Get a picture, will you? 17028 Give me a phone, will you?"
17028Go?
17028Gran?
17028Group?
17028Have you got a comm?
17028He''s behind me? 17028 Hello?
17028Hello?
17028Hey honey, did the bad Customs man finally let you go?
17028Hey what?
17028Holidays? 17028 How about this,"Art says,"how about I record this last statement to you with my comm, and then I can* play it back* three times for PC DeMoss?"
17028How am I? 17028 How are you feeling, Art?"
17028How did it happen?
17028How did she die?
17028How do you express loyalty to something as big and abstract as''humanity''?
17028How is it?
17028How is your health? 17028 How many more times have we got to do this, officer?"
17028How the fuck do you like it, jackoff? 17028 How the hell are we going to get you out of here?"
17028How the hell do you become a user- experience guy?
17028How will you get there? 17028 How''d you get up on the roof without setting off your room alarm, anyway?"
17028How''d you know I was in Toronto?
17028How''re things in London?
17028Huh?
17028Huh?
17028I beg your pardon?
17028I do n''t keep stats on that sort of thing--"How many paranoids have been released because they were vindicated?
17028I got ta run now, all right?
17028I told you about my mom, right? 17028 I wonder if we could beg a favor of you?"
17028I would if I could, you know that, right Art? 17028 I''d have to go through my case histories--""Is it more than ten?"
17028I''ll call you once I speak to Betty about the chiropractor, all right?
17028I''m sorry, all right?
17028I''m sorry?
17028Is all this just to make people reluctant to call the cops? 17028 Is n''t this a major step?
17028Is that the best fucking name you could come up with? 17028 Is that thing still around?"
17028Is there a deal or is n''t there, Fede?
17028Is this your* professional* opinion?
17028It''s like I''m a drug addict, huh?
17028It''s not that easy any more, is it?
17028Jesus, Federico, what the fuck am I* doing* here?
17028Jesus, are you insane? 17028 Jesus, today?
17028Johnny? 17028 Jump?
17028Just sit tight there for a couple minutes, OK? 17028 Lester?"
17028Let me comm you the address, OK?
17028Let''s go get some breakfast, OK?
17028Linda?
17028Linderrr?
17028No, I would n''t think so--"More than five?
17028No? 17028 Now, let''s have it, if you please?"
17028Once more for you, three more times for your partner, and we''re done, right? 17028 Once what happens?"
17028Only..."Only what?
17028Only..."Yes?
17028Ooh, right here in your office?
17028Ottawa? 17028 Really?"
17028Say hi to Linda for me, OK?
17028Seemed, huh? 17028 Seriously?"
17028Shall we have two? 17028 Shut the fuck up, will you?"
17028Sign the tablecloth?
17028So fucking* what*, Fede? 17028 So tell me, what''s the next step?
17028So there''s no other kind? 17028 So what do we do with it?
17028So where are you at now, vis- a- vis the hospital?
17028So where does informed loyalty leave off and jingoism begin? 17028 So, Arthur, tell me, what are you doing with your life?"
17028So, what happened to him?
17028So, when''s this all going to happen?
17028So, you''re saying that you''ve got professional expertise in the keeping of secrets, huh? 17028 Sorry?
17028Sorry?
17028Sure, I heard it premed-- he rubs it and it becomes a suitcase, right?
17028Surprised?
17028Szandor, do you sometimes sneak out onto the landing to have a cigarette? 17028 Tell me about your grandmother again-- you''re sure she''ll like me?"
17028That dipshit? 17028 That''s it?
17028That''s not cool, OK? 17028 That''s not the point--""What* is* the point?
17028That''s the purpose of morals and loyalty, right? 17028 The car?"
17028The moment''s passed, OK? 17028 The only one?
17028Then how did this idea become''ours,''Fede? 17028 Then why is your forehead all wrinkled up?"
17028They do n''t have fucking* hot tubs* in Virgin Upper, do they?
17028They do n''t? 17028 They pay you for that, huh?
17028To you? 17028 TunePay, Inc.?"
17028Unfortunately, I only get one chance to make a first impression, huh? 17028 Unrehearsed enough?"
17028Virgin?
17028Wait, is he a friend or a coworker?
17028Well, are n''t you eager?
17028Well, in that case, you wo n''t mind if we say no, right?
17028Well, not* firsthand,* sure, why would you? 17028 Well, that comes down to morals, right?
17028Well, we give this to Jersey, they submit the proposal, they walk away with the contract, right? 17028 Well, why not?
17028Were n''t you worried he''d rip off your ideas and not pay you anything for them?
17028Whah? 17028 What about my things?
17028What about your dad?
17028What are you doing here?
17028What are you talking about, buddy? 17028 What are you talking about?
17028What are you talking about?
17028What are you working on now?
17028What did Linda say?
17028What did she want?
17028What do you charge for work like that?
17028What does that mean?
17028What for?
17028What if I do n''t please? 17028 What is it, Arthur?"
17028What is it, hon?
17028What is it? 17028 What is it?"
17028What is* wrong* with you, man?
17028What kind of consultant?
17028What now? 17028 What should I write?"
17028What the hell does that mean? 17028 What the hell is wrong with the English, anyway?
17028What tone?
17028What was* that*?
17028What were you doing on the street at three AM anyway?
17028What would your grandmother say? 17028 What''s so funny?"
17028What''s that supposed to mean?
17028What''s there to say? 17028 What''s this for?"
17028What''s up now?
17028What''s up?
17028What''s wrong with you? 17028 What, you never heard of doctor- patient confidentiality?"
17028What? 17028 What?"
17028What?
17028What?
17028When are you coming back to Toronto?
17028Where do you want me to go? 17028 Who else do you know in the biz?"
17028Who knows? 17028 Who, me?
17028Who?
17028Why ca n''t whoever you''re meeting with come here?
17028Why do n''t I just pick it up when I see you again?
17028Why do you ask?
17028Why do you think you make them look bad?
17028Why move? 17028 Why not?
17028Why not? 17028 Why not?"
17028Why not?
17028Why the hell did you stick with this Linda anyway?
17028Why was he living in Newton?
17028Why, are you in the market?
17028Why?
17028Why?
17028With the eyes?
17028Wow, what did you do?
17028Yes, can you believe it?
17028Yes?
17028You belong in a loony bin, you know that?
17028You do n''t think it''ll be too obvious?
17028You got another girlfriend?
17028You have n''t been here long, huh?
17028You have to ask? 17028 You mean that my Gran ca n''t talk, I ca n''t talk, and all the court hears is the doctors?"
17028You must have read about the Tribes, right?
17028You son of a bitch-- that was you?
17028You want the whole story?
17028You want to sell this to them?
17028You''d think so, would n''t you? 17028 You''d use it, huh?"
17028You''ll stay here? 17028 You''re American, are n''t you?"
17028You''re a cool customer, you know that?
17028You''re a goddamned idiot, you know that?
17028You''re a* doctor* doctor, are n''t you?
17028You''re from LA, then?
17028You''re going to* work* now?
17028You''re insured, right?
17028You''re joking, right?
17028You''re not up here to jump, are you?
17028You''re saying you do n''t feel any fundamental loyalty to anything, Fede?
17028You''re sick? 17028 You''re* not* working again, are you?"
17028Your business in England, sir?
17028Your ex knows who I am?
17028#"Got a comm?"
17028## Colonelonic( private): Who is he?
17028## Colonelonic( private): sweat.value==0 Are you going to tell me what this is all about someday?
17028## Colonelonic:( private) No shit?
17028## Junta( private): And you''ll say what, exactly?
17028## Junta( private): I beg your pardon?
17028''What did you say to me?
17028''Why?
17028-- a super- peer, it''s all free and legal?
17028.a lot?
17028A chiropractor?"
17028A meeting?
17028A secret''s only a secret if you do n''t tell it to anyone, all right?
17028Advice?
17028After all that, she was going to go and meet Fede?
17028Agreeable?
17028All right?"
17028All right?"
17028An exercise in raw power?"
17028And why London?
17028And you say she fell?
17028And you, Miss?"
17028Any more jobs?
17028Are n''t crazy people incapable of humor?
17028Are we done yet?"
17028Are we getting that serious already?"
17028Are you afraid I''ll blab?
17028Are you hungry?
17028Are you keeping busy?"
17028Are you seeing someone?
17028Are you* trying* to undermine me?"
17028Are your parents alive?"
17028As it was, Art had to swerve into the parking lane on Mass Ave-- how did he get to Mass Ave?
17028Back off, OK?"
17028Ballgravy: Around 10 Trepan: Where are you from?
17028Ballgravy: Ass ass ass Colonelonic: Shut up, Bgravy Ballgravy: Blow me Trepan: What''s wrong with you, Ballgravy?
17028Ballgravy: Enough Trepan:> 100?
17028Ballgravy: How many what?
17028Ballgravy: No Trepan:> 10?
17028Ballgravy: No Trepan:> 50?
17028Boredom?
17028But is it making you happy?
17028But maybe there''s someone that someone you know knows who can do something about it?
17028But not anymore, you hear?
17028But tell me, how could I demonstrate my non- paranoia?
17028But what has your insurer done for you, lately?
17028But why would the hospital take you away if--""If I was n''t crazy?
17028Ca n''t we agree on that, and then discuss the ways that we can mitigate the risks associated with the trip?"
17028Ca n''t you find work at home?"
17028Call Audie?
17028Call Fede?
17028Call Gran?
17028Call me back once it happens and tell me what you wanna do, all right?"
17028Can I borrow your phone again?
17028Can we try a little thought experiment, Doctor?
17028Can you agree to work with me on this, and trust me to do the right thing?"
17028Can you believe that?"
17028Can you believe the bastards actually expect me at the office today?"
17028Can you tell the group what you found out?"
17028Code fragments?
17028Come on, what''s the big deal?"
17028Concussion?
17028Constable, is it all right if we go now?"
17028Could n''t you use some ready cash?
17028Criticize the idea, not the person, and only when it''s your turn, OK?"
17028Dammit, why was he thinking about the receptionist?
17028Dear oh dear, who''s mugging you?"
17028Did n''t they come visit you last weekend?
17028Did n''t you hear what I said?
17028Did they feed you on the train?
17028Died suddenly?"
17028Dirty trick, huh?"
17028Do I become a recovering nutcase?
17028Do I have to stand ever- vigilant against the siren song of craziness?"
17028Do n''t I get a say in this?"
17028Do n''t be a stranger, all right?"
17028Do n''t those contain confidential information disguised with pseudonyms?"
17028Do n''t try to get under my skin, OK?
17028Do they know about the car?"
17028Do you always have to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?
17028Do you believe that you know me better than some girl I met a month ago?"
17028Do you follow me?"
17028Do you honestly think she wants you to do this?
17028Do you understand?"
17028Does n''t loyalty mean anything to you?"
17028Fiddling with something?
17028For how long?"
17028Four?"
17028Get the papers going, will you?
17028Gink- Go:< shitlisted> Gink- Go:< shitlisted> Gink- Go:< shitlisted>## Gink- Go has left channel# EST.chatter Junta: You were saying?
17028Give me a little leverage, OK?"
17028God, did I really do that for two whole goddamned years?
17028Group, do you have any positive suggestions for Manuel?"
17028Had he cut the car off?
17028Have a great time, OK?"
17028Have you heard of the Tribes?"
17028He is on to us, you hear me?
17028He knows who I am?"
17028He was right, but so what?
17028He''d tried to draw the curtains a day-- two days?
17028Hello?"
17028Here''s a tip: When you give a gift like this, just leave humor out of it, OK?
17028Hey, what''s up?
17028How about the Jersey clients?
17028How are you enjoying England?"
17028How are you?
17028How are you?"
17028How can I defend myself against a charge if I''m not made aware of the means by which my defense is judged?
17028How can I help you?
17028How could it be broken already?
17028How did he end up standing here, outside of his car, shouting at the other driver, stalking towards the Flea with his hands balled into fists?
17028How do you do that?"
17028How do you like it here?"
17028How much detail?
17028How was the trip?"
17028How would you, as a medical professional, distinguish that scenario from one in which the patient is genuinely paranoid and delusional?"
17028How you doin'', mate?"
17028How''d you guess?"
17028How''re things in London?"
17028How''re things with Perceptronics?
17028How''s Marybeth?
17028How''s Ottawa?
17028How''s Ottawa?"
17028How''s Ottawa?"
17028How''s Ottawa?"
17028How''s Toronto?"
17028How''s it going?
17028How''s things with you?
17028How''s tricks out there?
17028How''s your record?
17028Humiliation?
17028Hurry up and wait, right?
17028I did you a favor with the law, you leave me be?"
17028I do n''t know when I''m coming back, but we''ll sort it out there, all right?
17028I got mugged last night, all right?
17028I have that right, do n''t I?"
17028I just beat off those three assholes without raising a hand, and all you want to do is criticize?
17028I just want to get out of here and back to my job, all right?''
17028I just wo n''t take his calls anymore, how about that?"
17028I kept my voice as calm as I could, but it cracked on"May I?"
17028I mean, it ca n''t hurt to ask around, can it?"
17028I mean, the insurance thing?"
17028I need an icepack, OK?
17028I owe you one, all right?
17028I think that if she had n''t had to take care of me, she would have just given up, you know?
17028I thought you wanted to talk about this?"
17028I''ll get you a new key later today, all right?"
17028I''ll just lie down and nap now, all right?
17028I''ll let you know, OK?"
17028I''ll meet you at the front doors, all right?"
17028I''ll meet you here at 1000h GMT/0400h EDT and go over it with you, yes?
17028I''ll put together a wishlist and pass it along to you soon, OK?"
17028I''m at Art''s grandmother''s place, all right?
17028I''m in a* police station*-- why are you letting him do this?''
17028I''m incompetent, remember?"
17028I''m not nuts, OK?
17028I''m taking the day off-- why do n''t you call me tomorrow?"
17028If there was no institutional loyalty, that''s where you''d end up, right?
17028If we assume for the moment that I''m* not* crazy, how should I demonstrate that here in the court?"
17028If we''re going to trade, I should be able to examine the goods first, right?"
17028If you have been set up, we''ll discover it--""What''s the ratio of real paranoids to people who''ve been set up, in your experience?"
17028If you''re doing all of this out of loyalty, then why are you drawing a paycheck?
17028If you''re going to mug us--""Mug you, sir?
17028If you''re not coming into the office, you tell me, you hear?
17028If* they''re* not sure, then you ca n''t be sure, right?"
17028Is it really important?
17028Is it what you plan to do with the rest of your life?"
17028Is n''t this a trade?
17028Is that enough of a briefing for you, Arthur?"
17028Is there a comm on the ward?
17028Is this observation period anything more than a formality en route to committal?
17028It started innocently enough:"Why does God care if we take off our hats, Gran?"
17028It''ll probably roll out in LA first, then San Francisco, Seattle...""What?
17028It''s LA, right?
17028It''s no one''s fault, OK?
17028Jesus fucking Christ, what the hell is wrong with you?"
17028Jesus, Art, I''m doing my best here, all right?"
17028Jesus, are you a moron?
17028Jesus, is that the best you can do?"
17028Junta: Hey, I resemble that remark Trepan: Junta, you''re a UK lawyer?
17028Just a word to the wise, all right?"
17028Just jingoism?
17028Keep calling me and not* ever*, do you understand?"
17028Let me explain my plan and my reasons, OK?
17028Let me guess, she told you I was going to say this, too, right?"
17028Linda told me visitors were n''t allowed, is that true?"
17028Login to an EST chat and see who''s up to what?
17028Look, we go out for dinner, do n''t say a word about the kerb design or the waiter or the menu or the presentation, OK?
17028May I?"
17028Maybe that you''re not even worth robbing, eh?"
17028Maybe they''ll want a little rape, too-- should I go along with that?
17028Meeting the friends?
17028Met cute, huh?
17028My God, how are you?"
17028My uncle Ed, he got caught in a threshing machine, paid his premiums every week for forty years, what did he get?
17028No need for needles, OK?"
17028Not really the spirit of the thing, is it?"
17028Not some bullshit about your girlfriend?
17028Now if the cops would only finish the paperwork... Colonelonic: What are you doing in London, anyway?
17028Now, again if you please?"
17028Now, again, please, sir?"
17028Now, can we go?
17028Now, once more, please?"
17028OK?
17028Oh, and feel better, all right?"
17028On the other hand, he''d gotten his way, had n''t he?
17028On this day, how am I?"
17028Once that''s done, I''ll show you the committal document, all right?"
17028Or a shrink, for that matter?
17028Or did Toby and Linda cook it up?"
17028Or was he just reading her wrong or pushing her buttons or something?
17028Pass me my comm, OK?"
17028Prop the door open behind you?"
17028Quitting?"
17028Right?
17028Say that your coworkers really* were* seeking to harm you-- this is not without historical precedent, right?
17028She was taking Haldol when it happened, a low antianxiety dose, right?"
17028She''s not a mental health professional, is she?"
17028Should I call a doctor?"
17028Should I write up a formal proposal and send it to Jersey?
17028Should n''t I have a say?"
17028Skating on the canal, OK?"
17028Sketches?
17028Smart or happy?
17028So what the hell were they arguing about?
17028So, do you think of yourself as an orphan?"
17028Something?
17028Sorry, all right?
17028Still, the silence stretched and snapped and I said,"Hey, speaking of, can I offer you guys a tour of the ward?
17028Tell me, Art, how are you?
17028That being said, can we arrive at some kind of solution?"
17028That you were distracted?
17028That''s our job, right?"
17028The first step in dissecting a story is euthanizing it:"What is the theme of this story?"
17028The man was a cop, he was a foreigner-- albeit a thoroughly documented one-- and what would it cost?
17028The theme of this story is:"Would you rather be smart or happy?"
17028The thing was newer than new, right?
17028There''s no good reason for you to be here, right?
17028They would n''t give us a free ride, so why should we give them one?
17028Thought you were broke, though?"
17028Three?
17028Trepan: Any UK solicitors on the channel?
17028Trepan: Have you met?
17028Trepan: Junta, you there?
17028Trepan: What, all of them?
17028Trepan:/private Colonelonic Are you still working at Merril- Lynch?
17028Trepan:/private Colonelonic Can you get me background on just one guy?
17028Trepan:/private Colonelonic Still got access to Lexus- Nexus?
17028Trepan:/private counselbot What is the legal standing of this contract?
17028Trying to cripple yourself?"
17028Use a bit of tinfoil for your ashtray?
17028Want me to mock up the interface and the network model?"
17028Want to hear how I am?"
17028Wanted to act-- who does n''t?
17028Was Linda really acting* this* nuts?
17028We knew you would n''t go for it, but we were still going to cut you in-- you think that was your little whore''s idea?
17028We really should spend some more time together, keep connected, you know?"
17028We should do something, you know, Audie?"
17028We thought perhaps you''d like to trade, like?"
17028We''re going out for dinner, then?"
17028We''re supposed to be accountable, right?
17028Well, we ca n''t avoid politics, can we?"
17028Well, who would know better than you, right?
17028What about your folks?"
17028What are you doing here?"
17028What are you doing in London?"
17028What do you do in London again?"
17028What do you think?"
17028What do you want me to do?"
17028What do you want to know about my fucking ex?"
17028What else?"
17028What for?
17028What greater purpose are you loyal to?"
17028What happened to the spirit of transatlantic solidarity?"
17028What if I walk away right now?"
17028What if MassPike charged* nothing* for people with more than, say 50,000 tunes in their cache?
17028What if MassPike* rewarded* these guys?
17028What is it that the police will want to talk to you about, then?
17028What is my optimum strategy for providing compelling evidence of my repudiation of my worldview?"
17028What kind of instrumentation recorded it?
17028What kind of insurance do you have?
17028What planet did his cousins grow up on, anyway?
17028What the hell did you say to me?
17028What the hell was he saying?
17028What the hell was it, though?
17028What the hell was that?"
17028What then?
17028What''s that when it''s at home?"
17028What''s up?"
17028What''s wrong with you?"
17028What''s wrong?"
17028What''s wrong?"
17028What''s yours?"
17028What* is it*?"
17028When did you say you were meeting with Perceptronics?"
17028When do you think you''ll arrive?
17028When should I plan on being back in Boston?"
17028When will you visit Toronto?"
17028Where do you get off playing around with* my* safety?
17028Where the fuck do you get off raising your voice to me?
17028Where the hell did Fede get off, anyway?
17028Where would I get more information on the protocol?
17028Where?"
17028Which would you rather do first, eat or rest?"
17028Who else do I need to go over this with?"
17028Who else would pay for this?"
17028Who ever heard of a civil servant with good hair?
17028Who the hell are you, and what are you doing in my fucking hotel room?"
17028Who the hell would I blab* to*, anyway?"
17028Who''s he working for?
17028Why am I so damned eager to be rescued from my rooftop aerie?
17028Why am I so reluctant to take further action in the service of getting someone up onto the roof?
17028Why are n''t you in Group?
17028Why are n''t you in bed?"
17028Why ca n''t Fede go?"
17028Why did n''t I just leave London when I could, come home, move in with Gran, get a regular job?
17028Why did n''t I swear off the whole business of secrecy and provocation?
17028Why do n''t I just call the cops?"
17028Why do n''t we just cuddle, OK?"
17028Why do n''t you have a seat?"
17028Why not?
17028Why not?''
17028Why the fuck should I care if you do n''t, huh?
17028Why the hell did n''t you just hand over your wallet, call the cops and be done with it?
17028Why walk down the hallway to ask a coworker a question, when you can just send email?
17028Why was he picking a fight with this goddamned psycho, anyway?
17028Why wo n''t you just take a second to check?
17028Why?
17028Why?"
17028You OK?
17028You called emergency services?"
17028You do n''t have to put me in a* cell*, do you, Sergeant Lorenzi?
17028You do n''t have to say anything now, but think about it, OK, Art?"
17028You going to be moving back, then?
17028You knew the job was dangerous when you took it, all right?
17028You know the joke about the circumcisionist''s wallet made from foreskins?"
17028You live here?"
17028You remember Mrs. Tomkins?
17028You see that, right?"
17028You think it''d be hard to pick your faces out of a rogues gallery?
17028You were so young when she went, but you remember her, do n''t you?"
17028You''d think they could cope with* one little problem* without crawling up my cock, would n''t you?"
17028You''ll have to rob me later, all right?"
17028You''ll remember me when I go, wo n''t you Art?"
17028You''re either loyal to your immediate circle of friends or you''re a deluded dupe?"
17028Your back?"
17028_ Were_ you distracted?
17028whereupon the heroes have to flee, deeper into danger, and the tension rises and rises?
