Good to see Lola has had lasting positive influence on Clarke.
Holland wanting to carry more deadly weapons in no way reflects possibilities he's becoming more violent or paranoid. At all. No siree. All is well.
Well. Let's see what ripped up the AI! At least it's not a body. Also no triumphant return for Sally, brandishing an arm.
"Maneuver," American-style. Heh. There's the occasional language joke the "American Revolution," was all about removing a bunch of useless "O's" and "U's" from words and spelling things with an "er" phoneme with "er" at the end instead of "re." 😉 It all ties back to the written roots of the language when the Saxon influenced monks kept trying to basic everything off Germanic spellings while the Norman influenced monks kept using Frankish. Lets face it, written English is a mess, and the fragmentation of dialects across the Americas, Australia/New Zealand, et. al. haven't helped.
At least it's not Irish. Why is "Nimah" pronounced "Neeve?" My Irish friends laugh and say I'm likely correct when I hypothesize during British occupation the Irish came up with really weird spellings specifically to fuck with the Engish. "Nie-MAH?" "No, it's 'NEEVE,' ya twat!" Except, when spoken, one uses a ruder word than "twat," which is too friendly sounding to be offensive.
