Comments

Cool that we got to see the novel so early! :) It's exciting... Too bad for Sabine, though. I think the clone was telling her the truth... well, I guess we'll find out in part 3. I was hoping for more backstory in this novel, but this action pace is nice and we did get confirmation about the ability.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:25, 10 June 2008 (EDT)

• And how on the earliness! Great stuff!--SacValleyDweller (talk) 01:30, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
  • It was a nice touch having Noah be in the cell opposite the duplicates' cell. We've been seeing him and the Haitian so much that I'm starting to wonder if he's the new man behind the curtain...--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:56, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
• yeah, i also think he was telling her the truth... the company wouldn't send the root to risky missions if they could think of a better way --cookie 19:06, 10 June 2008 (EDT)

Location

• So the forested picnic spot is in Utah? It seems to be written that way. Sabine's comment and the Roswell-like markings in the trees suggest that it is, but it sure is a long way to drive... Ryan, do you know if that's correct?--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:10, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
  • I don't have any "inside" information about it, but yeah, it sure seems like it's in Utah. At least that's the way it reads and is drawn... :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:30, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
    • There is an interesting Pando Tree in Utah! --Juba 03:20, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
      • Level? Any firsthand experience? :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 07:00, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
        • I'm not sure if I have ever been to Pando, but I have been to several similar places in Utah and Idaho. This does look a lot like them, except for there not being enough mountains, but Jason probably didn't realize that in Utah there are always more mountains on the horizon. That really is a long way to drive though. -Lөvөl 13:04, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
          • Then maybe they flew to Utah, and the Nissan is a rental car? :)--MiamiVolts (talk) 13:39, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
            • Thats not a Utah license plate, in fact its not a US plate at all. ;) It could be a rental, I wonder if they had an assignment near by or if they just went there to talk? -Lөvөl 14:13, 10 June 2008 (EDT)

Easter egg

It's nice to have a close up of the string web. It's also looks like the colors we have listed appear to be correct. Very cool. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 07:03, 10 June 2008 (EDT)

• I agree, one of the better Easter Eggs from the GN's I think. (Friskymuffin - (talk) 14:18, 10 June 2008 (EDT))

vegetative replication

wow, think of a better name?¿ according to wiki, bacterial conjugation is the transfer of genetic material between bacteria through direct cell-to-cell contact, i'm new on that --cookie 19:11, 10 June 2008 (EDT)

• Ah, but it was called replication in the Revolutionary War and in this novel...but we'll wait until the assignment tracker page comes up for Julien, and then we'll go with whatever that says, most likely. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 19:24, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
  • sure, i'm just curious! --cookie 21:27, 10 June 2008 (EDT)
