@Everyone UN:Stark Science

[nonstopnarcissist]

This would be easier if I had more than 140 characters to do it in but, HEY VILLAGE!

Are you a scientifically inclined individual with skills or projects that could use extra equipment/assistance/attention?

Is there something you want to get off the ground but can't quite manage on your lonesome?

OR Are you someone that lives here with concerns/questions/projects you feel need doing but don't know how to handle because science isn't your thing?

Do you have skills you think could better your life and those of your fellow villagers?

Or do you just want some free food, wine, and mingling?

If you're one, some, or even none of the above: Join Bruce Banner and I at the first ever Stark Expo South Village!

Food, drinks, demonstrations, debates, and most importantly: Collaborative efforts to keep us alive come winter, come together as a community and all that jazz, Next Monday.

Contact Me or Banner if you want space to set up for any demonstrations/demos/lectures or further details.

We would appreciate everyone coming, but if you are someone who prefers one-on-one or do not like crowds, let us know and we can meet in a quieter way.

[cannily]

I love crowds, and I do plan to attend.

But I have some rather ongoing questions, and I'd appreciate more than one door to knock on when I can't find the answer on my own.

un: Dr. Banner

[notsoangry]

Technically Tony and I share the same door, but we're always available together or separate. I'm in the schoolhouse a lot if you ever want to pop by and say hi.

Also this will hopefully get a lot of people in the same place to make connections and know which doors to knock on.

You're quite the go-getter, aren't you?

[nonstopnarcissist]

If it works, it works. Sometimes people need a little nudge.

[thegreatexperiment]

And sometimes they need a cattle prod

[nonstopnarcissist]

Hence the free food and wine, that's usually motivation enough but- Note to self, make cattle prod.

[thegreatexperiment]

Shower first. Cattle prod second
Your sex life can wait
The smell in the Inn can't

[nonstopnarcissist]

Right, pipes, I still say putting a cistern on the roof and pulling from the bottom of that might be the best bet.

[thegreatexperiment]

I had some thoughts about ways to heat it

[nonstopnarcissist]

Hot water heaters are tricky without natural gas or electricity, what've you got?

[thegreatexperiment]

Kiln. H.H. Holmes style. You know, without the murder.

[nonstopnarcissist]

That is...probably doable. Does tap into the 'only so much firewood' issue we'd have come winter but- if we just had bamboo growing somewhere.

[thegreatexperiment]

You'll have to ask Watney about that

[nonstopnarcissist]

I'll add it to the list- but the kiln Idea should work.

[thegreatexperiment]

Every now and then, I get things right.

[freightcars]

Don't worry, I can keep up with the demand.

[nonstopnarcissist]

More worried about running out of trees than anything else, Buck Bunyan.

[freightcars]

Having wandered into the great wide yonder far enough to get bitten by fucking LSD snakes I can confidently say we have a surplus of trees.

[nonstopnarcissist]

LSD what now?

[freightcars]

Snakes.
God damn thing bit me and I saw sound for three days

[nonstopnarcissist]

Like soundwaves or we talking Windows Media Player fractal lazer bullshit?

[freightcars]

Way more the former than the latter. Not the fun way.

[nonstopnarcissist]

...It says something that I have to shrug off my knee jerk 'that'd be useful' thought in favor of 'that sounds like it sucks' huh?

[freightcars]

sure, if you find a use for being miserable for three god damn days sweating your privates off and watching the walls get itchy let me know and I'll point you in the right direction

[nonstopnarcissist]

Point of clarification: on wendigos or whatever, not me. Or other people. Historically speaking milking snakes for venom's a thing, I think.

[freightcars]

I think this is one of those scenarios where you gotta stop to ask yourself whether or not you should rather than whether or not you could

[nonstopnarcissist]

...Fair enough.

UN: annie cresta

[treadswater]

I'm not that good with crowds but I can make glass

and I'm trained to farm fish and take notes so I could be useful that way

could I talk to you or Dr B or both outside your party?

UN: Stark Science

[nonstopnarcissist]

Absolutely. You can swing by the forge anytime, I'm almost always there, Bruce isn't that far mostly.

[ataashihunter]

Anything you need help with, Tiny?

[nonstopnarcissist]

A beer and a backrub would be great about now.

[ataashihunter]

The backrub I can do, I am still looking for a pot for the beer.

[nonstopnarcissist]

How big and what out of? I can probably help with the pot.

[ataashihunter]

It's for brewing beer. 30 or 60 litres. And it needs to be able to be boiled. And then I need some sort of fermenting vat.

[nonstopnarcissist]

I'm going to need more metal, or to finally start mining.

[ataashihunter]

Yeah that is why I want to see if there is any already made around

[nonstopnarcissist]

I'll put the word out, see if there's one they can spare from the kitchen.

[ataashihunter]

Yeah, Major said he might have some but he wanted to know how much liters are in cups.

[nonstopnarcissist]

Thirty would be about 127 cups, sixty 254 cups.

[ataashihunter]

Doesn't that depend on the size of the cup?

[nonstopnarcissist]

A standard cup is 8 ounces. Don't ask, measurements are weird.

[ataashihunter]

Sounds like it. Anyway good to know. Thanks, Tiny

[nonstopnarcissist]

Anytime, big guy.
