Dude, trsut me, delete the email. I replied and met up with him, and
then he wired me up to a machine and now I talk with this weird
grating voice and have to live in a protective poly-carbide shell.

OTOH, I did get this neato ray gun for exterminating things with.

What's a "grimey slim" for goodness' sake??? And *what* about them?
Are you referring to the mutoes like the one (sevrin?) that helped
Sarah? He was only grimy because he'd been living rough for years. And
he wasn't that slim!

Puzzled....
