Right!

There were a few others there as well- it is in his farewell speech to the cyb survivors who were going back home- but she was the one he hoped would "get it".

You're up!

It's a marine holding "no shield, no sidearm, only the shortblade" talking to Nylan. The book is The Chaos Balance

Thanks Gil. Alright try this one.

Politicians do not care for warmth, except as an impression. In the end, the politicians look after self-interest, while pretending to be warm.

This one should be easy, so have fun!

Good job torybear, and welcome back!

Now just name the speaker, listener, and book(not omnibus title). Again, it's good to have you back

No pressure at all right....okay

Its Whaler, and he is talking to the kid in the craftsman's shop, the one who made him the picnic set.

He is explaining why he wont be running for the newly established council.

I think I am going to double check right now.

10 minutes later...

The problem with sisters and books...
They borrow them...and usually return them...often buying copies for themselves....but every once in a very great while they take your books into the void...
sigh
I cant double check for certainty but I believe that it the the Ecologic Secession.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 4:08 pm

Sorry try again. Here's a hint, it is a Whaler. Which one it is I leave to you to figure out

torybear · Post by **torybear** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 4:10 pm

aha then it must be from the one I have....and she is off.

torybear · Post by **torybear** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 4:23 pm

All right last shot for me and then I swear it is back to work....

Nathaniel Firstborn Whaler talking to Sylvia in the Ecolitan Enigma.

Correct! One Sherlock for torybear comin right up. Your turn

p.s. you still owe me a sherlock(not trying to be rude)

torybear · Post by **torybear** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 4:49 pm

One sherlock update coming up Norse...sorry about that...

ok

You ask, is it ethical?...Call it an examination of conscience. Are we playing fods? Of course, but people always have, and refused to admit it. For the first time in my life, I'm being honest.

The good news is its not a speaker its a thinker...no need to name a conversational partner...

The bad news...its not all that easy...but I will try to check in to provide hints.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 5:05 pm

Nooo! This isn't fair! I just read this 15 minutes ago!

Oh well, I'll be nice and wait a week before posting the answer(if I remember the quote in a week).

This sounds like Cerryl from what I've heard about him. Colors of Chaos.
