rob - Kohran is more than welcome. We'll just have to remember to triple the strength of the boiler walls, and use handwaved titanium steel or something
similar.Steam has great power, and should be treated with care. It will also save the world!
Fox - it's not quite who you had in mind...but I hope you like the ship's AI anyway.
Benjamin - *grin* What can I say? I've been reading Scrooge McDuck stories for a LONG time... *laugh* I even know what caused it. We loaded the computer
with information on navigation/aeronautics, plus all sorts of financial data and the like. But we did give it a link to the big Archive that Fate is working on
as well. And...well, in an effort to increase the ship's speed, the Jason did a ritual to invoke Mercury (hey - it's a BIG ship. Every little bit could
help). Since we were trying to get a rich financial aviator for the AI for the ship, he used a Mercury-head dime as a focus for the ritual and embedded it in
the dash, with a glass cabochon over it. While it's not a seated Liberty dime (which is what Scrooge's Number One Dime was), the symbolism was
apparently good enough for the forming AI, and it went McDuck.
