Epicurius posted:One of these days we need to feed all the books into a text generator and see what it comes up with. I. Am a thermal. A pillar of warm air, rising off ground heated by the sun. I can't tell you what street, skyscraper, or sunny meadow I rise from. I can't tell you what birds I have lofted skywards, like an elevator raising them above the surly bonds of gravity. I can't tell you what nimbus clouds I have made into thunderheads. I can't tell you those things not because the earth is being invaded by brain-stealing alien slugs called "Yeerks" or anything, but because I am a temporary convection phenomenon, and not a conscious observer.

Piell posted:Pretty sure the Yeerks don't know about the Pemalites or the Chee - the Pemalites had died and the Chee hidden on Earth thousands of years before the Yeerks got out into space. What did they think the pemalite data thingy back in the first ten books was, then? I thought the yeerks knew, and had a pretty good idea of exactly what blendered that entire building. But i can't even remember that far back in this thread, let alone when i was 12.
