In Response To: Random MIDA theory (Philtron)

: I was reading the terminal on "the Rose" in the original Marathon,
: and I came across this passage about MIDA: The organization has survived
: as an underground terrorist organization, and remains active to this day.
: In its underground state, it fosters terrorism throughout Sol, and due to
: its spectacular funding and excellent personnel , it has grown to be one
: of the most feared terrorist groups active anywhere in Sol.

: The term "excellent personnel" seems odd to me. Like, do they have
: really good secretaries and clerical aides? Probably not what it means.
: I'm assuming it means they have really good soldiers since they're a
: terrorist group.

: And that's when I had a random idea. What if the "excellent
: personnel" that MIDA have are actually the military cyborgs? I
: haven't delved too deep in the story page to see if it's possible.

Some speculation on this appears in the Bernard Strauss section which also links to The Chicken Term section.

And of course... the long standing question... what does MIDA stand for?

Cheers
Hamish
