oh right, you are still studying law - that explains why you were writing up a verdict

here in England, law takes a 3-4 year degree, 1 year at law school and then 2 years training at which you are then officially qualified - I am now 5 years post qualification experience so I can give you this advice - DONT DO IT - go and work in McDonalds instead, it is more fun.

Whatever they have told you, it is not true, the travelling the world, the women, the fame and glory is not true and you dont even get your own swamp!!!

that being said, I did read in the legal press about the German lawyer who made 8 million euro in one year

GT,
Yes, I do have Enigma in my CD drive during SEIV. I move it to my Sterio System when I CTW.

I know. That's the reason why I work as a paramedic, too.

Reminds me of song:
Everything that they told us
was nothing but lies
Everything that they brought us
was nothing but bribes

I can leave most of the mentioned things alone but NO SWAMP?!?!

The Tandu are nasty in the sense that you don't want to meet one in a dark alley. Or a light alley. Or anywhere for that matter. They're totally insensitve to losses- they use "engines" that give them a massive manuevering advantage, but occasionally blow up, taking the ship with them. Also using reality-warping weaponry, which is pretty unpredicable. One shot might turn the target into antimatter, another send clowns running down the hallways and through bulkheads. It's also mentioned in the book that the Terrans never beat the Tandu, even when the odds were in their favor.

Their clients are even weirder though.

Like the Epsiarchs. A sentient biological weapon? Ow. For those not familar with the books, an Epsiarch is a "psi adept" of extreme power. If one looks at you and decides you shouldn't be there, you AREN'T there any more. In one book, they were used to make a bridge by denying that the water underfoot existed at all. They use this same talent to power the "engines" the Tandu use. They're also insane..
