In Response To: Re: Pattern Buffers (Steve Levinson)

: See my original premise. Too many alternate timelines spoils the plot. I vote
: against the PB starting an alternate timeline thing - they literally allow
: you to download your future memories so as to avoid your future
: mistakes.

So what you are saying is that from the perspective of an outside observer, a person using a PB would be immidiatly endowed with knowledge of all the possible paths he is going to take.Quite a device.

Also on what Ernie (Blayne) said about why Marathon would have PB's if only the security officer could use them. It might be possible that PB's might have served an alterior function for the rest of the crew, possibly some kind of medical station, or love tester arcade machine.

Another thing about PB's I wanted to ask is why in M1 only Human made PB's have that HAL9000esque red eye, but in M2 and ? everyone has them?
