Hmm, only thing that is really popping up for me is about the soldiers Kote fought with near the end of the second evening with Chronicler. Question: Did Kote choose to stop fighting them, realizing that it would identify him as Kvothe, or was it some previous action on his part that caused him to be unable to use his Adem skills?

Hey Alice! In regards to your question about me particpating on the Kingkiller re-read...I think I've posted on it once or twice, but sadly yes, I'm not really involved on it - two reasons, one - I barely have time to keep up with the WoT re-read, due to my workload drastically increasing this past year. Second...I do lurk on the Kingkiller re-read, and always feel a bit intimidated by the intense discussions and theorizing going on! Don't feel I have quite as much to contribute, as my main love of the series is not for analyzing the mysteries or catching the minute details...but just enjoying the beauty of Rothfuss' creation. His writing is so beautiful, I don't think too much on the deeper mysteries of the text. So there you go! Maybe someday I'll try to post a bit more though. Currently re-reading WMF - I don't enjoy it quite as much as NotW, but still so lovely!!

I understand and I commiserate with you. I will do the editing into Dark'uns ramblings but I want your .approval of it ever seeing the light of day. You don't approve, it never sees daylight. Paul

Got the message. A day late. That damn RL aint guilty this time. My ignorance of things work is. I am gonna accuse him of it anyway. I need somebody or some thing to blame this on. :D:D I meant what I said about the effect of your writing. and about art and all. If you ever doubt whether I am joking in a post which looks like it. I am. 95 percent of the time. The Ditty Mistletoe thing I tried for both. I appreciate all your posts. Rational. Easy to grasp. Say, do you know where Gold Bar is up there. I , years ago, defended a gal up in BC from some wretch who was dogging her and threating to carve up her face. Stirred up stuff. But he was banned. Afterward a member ,22, girl, bisexual she said but she had dated 20 guys and 2 girls so. Anyway afterward she asked me in a chat room "Would you be my dad?" and I said yes, and not statelegal the whole family agreed she was part. I lost track of her years ago. She was from Gold Bar though she was living in Everett when I visited to see her and check out the BS meter. No BS. Anyway, Stops channeling Dark'un. Gets out of garrulous geezer mode and stops. :D This shout thing needs the gateway bell warning so I know. Paul or Caveatar

I hope I am not killing you with all these theory posts...

ROFL. I knew it was your fault all along. :D

Don't do it. It never works. it is always something you did. Have a great night Alice

Thanks so very much for the compliments and the welcome back. That really means a lot to me - especially coming from someone whose opinions I so respect.

Agh, sorry...haven't been paying attention to Tor lately. Yes, we always link directly to the post when sourcing from here, so it's fine to post things here of course, if you think it's appropriate to post it on any of the threads here. But of course, you can feel free to post at Theoryland if you don't think many here would be interested. We should have the database up by the end of the year!

Alice - By the way, thanks for the praise on "Fraasti". I work hard on things like meter and timing mostly because I like to do things right, but also because I know there's at least one person who will read it (you) who is fairly discriminating about that stuff.
