It is, but the contagion vector is not air, or water or even physical contact but forum messages. And it appears that many people have no natural resistance.....

So let's get to the real Nate of the problem.
I thought I'd agreed that Steve Jordan was actually pshrynk's spousal unit (mk III)'s cover identity to check up on his on-line behaviour. (Presumably an actor is hired to provide photos and the occasional mis-direction at meet-ups. That or we are all part of the pshrynk monitoring cover story, and as such delusions of the person who has created the Steve Jordan front.

As for Marc, well Adrian says he's real and has something to do with a parking meter. What more proof would you need?
Parking meters need continual feeding with money, right? Sounds more like pshrynk to me.

Anyhow, we all know that ZCDs are created by Marc, that ZCDs could not have happened to have happened by happenstance, and so they must have a creator, who we shall call Marc (as it requires less typing than Adrian, and I shudder to think what an Adrian developed drink would be like), which means Marc must exist. Quid Erat Bibendum.

I'm sure we are, but are also all figments of each others' imagination, running as a cross-hosted meme delusion -- kinda of like a looping virtual machine running on an imaginary computer (known, simply, as "i") which is actually the root of a slight overspend at a ZCD dispensing establishment. Well, either that or we are the product of a duotheism, and our continued existance is at the sufferance of these two -- hence the on-going essential praises and homages to the Hugo and the Lefty.

If find the steam really mucks up the Cybook. Could we have a romance novel with a bit of electricity instead?
