Not how far you can jaunt, but what you can jaunt with. When A TP jaunts, it seems they can carry a certain amount of "non personal" matter with them.. The obvious: clothes, belts, ae suits, shoes, hats; the non obvious: wallets, pocket lint, dental implants; and the carry-on-baggage;Russian stacking dolls (The dirtiest buis.), Umbrellas(sp), Jedikiah's Amulet (Slaves of Jedikiah), etc.. I've used the old series because believe it or not, the new series actually seems more consistant. In the new series, TP's can jaunt with a SAP along for the ride (General Damon geting teleorted with Megabyte and Adam). So the question is: How strong is that carry-along control. Do you think there it comes down to how strong a TP is? Is there a minimum/maximum (A minimal tp would look awfully funny always ending up in the nude whenever they jaunted!) Is there a maximum( Do you like this house, but not the neihborhood? Teleport the house!) When is that control learned? (Nature is good, but wow, giving new TP's just the right strength to jaut with their clothes in tact!) Just some early new years morning thoughts from someone who is working a box-office in the cold...

There are branches of so-called psychics today who believe in looking at one aspect of the human being to see if the person has illnesses, strengths, etc..it is the same thing that scientists have proven does exist, to some degree.. the bioelectrical field that extends around all human beings (we generate current from the heart that is used in the nervous system) that mystics like to call the "aura". So, my explanation is this.. anything that is inside the old TPs' aura goes with them when they jaunt (which explains just about everything they ever jaunted with), but since other people can't be surrounded by your aura, they can't jaunt with you..the same goes for houses and such for the old TP :) That's my explanation.

They did pull Arlon through in the end, although TIM had to drain the National Grid to do so. This would suggest the weight of extra items were limited. Also TIM used to do the navigation calculations via the belts/bands, and probably took into account a normal amount of odds and ends. Another example of a jaunt going wrong was when Stephen was trying to rescue a Nola 'bear' in The Great Mothers of Matra, but these extra long distance ones seem to be set up rather differently anyway.

I always assumed this was like the explanation given in Superman-related media (provided to me by my husband) - that each person's energy extends a few inches around him/her, and therefore, things like clothing or what someone is carrying, as long as it is, in part, within that Zone, it can move with him/her. But it doesn't work for senitent things, like people - so people can't be jaunted along if they're merely holding a TP's hand. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Shaun Owen Hately <075466@bud.cc.swin.edu.au> Subject: Re: Range of Powers Date: 03 Jan 1997 22:38:08 +1100 (EST) On Wed, 1 Jan 1997, Tigger wrote: > jaunt with whatever you can carry or happen to be wearing.

It must have been, because in the novelezation of One Law Mike's jaunting powers first manifest themselves when he saves a girl from being run over by a truck. I suspect that while possible with the original TP, they tend to use the matter transporters because it's safer. (Also, since Mike only jaunted her to the side of the road without a belt, it may have something to do with operation of the jaunting equipment.)

Arlon couldn't jaunt because his species were not capable. Possibly the girl had some latent ability. Or Roger Price hadn't thought of matter transporters at the time of The Visitor, and if he had, the TP would have used one for Arlon.

Date: 04 Jan 1997 20:02:12 -0800 Finally got around to renting "Independence Day", and as I'm scrolling through the credits trying to identify all the cameos I spot a credit for "Richard Speight, Jr." playing "Ed." Was this *our* Richard Speight, Peter the Time Guardian? (Or could it have been his son, as I don't recall a Jr. being affixed to his name in the TP credits?) I haven't a *clue* as to who "Ed" was (it apparently was a pretty small role), so I don't even know where to begin looking on the tape for someone who might resemble a 20-years-older Peter... I wasn't on this list when the movie first came out, so maybe this has already been discussed to death. If so, mucho apologies...but could someone straighten me out? Is it another Richard Speight, or is he really in this movie and if so, where? (Hey, I didn't figure out it was Brent Spiner playing the weird doctor until the credits...I'm a little slow.) Thanks!

I think I got a screenshot of him, one of the English who picked up the Morse code transmission from the Americans, but I'm not sure (it's on the page).

Date: 11 Jan 1997 20:46:47 GMT I took a look in Spotlight today (the UK casting bible). There is a Richard Speight listed in there, could be around the right age, but the picture is not conclusive. If you look at Chris Chittell today for example you wouldn't think it was the same person. Children can act under their own name, even if it duplicates someone in the UK acting union, Equity. However, if/when they want to join, they can't share a name with an existing actor. This doesn't eliminate international duplication. Even Roger Price had to modify his name for his American series in the mid 80s because of conflict with an actor's.

This will work :) Round Robin, part 5/? Adam sat at the edge of the Adriatic Sea, with Jade and Ami at his side. "It's all very puzzling," he began, taking a whiff of the briny body of water in front of him. "Megabyte first begins getting these dreams..nightmares, really..Now it's your turn, Ami..." his voice trailed off. Ami cocked her head to one side. "I wouldn't worry about it if I were you, Adam...maybe Megabyte and I just have some unconscious link..I mean, stranger things have happened." Adam chuckled under his breath, and Jade picked up on the thing he was amused by without need of any telepathy at all. "A link with Megabyte?", Jade began, smirking. "Perhaps you and he need some time al..." Ami's skin flushed with blood. "That's enough," she interrupted. Adam got to his feet. "What we need here is some conjecture. Some good old-fashioned guesses. No matter what the reason, you, miss Ami, and Megabyte are sharing the same dreams. Maybe if you two are sharing some sort of link, the rest of us might not be far behind? Some new latent link that we're just now starting to develop?" Ami shuddered. "That's a little scary, having someone being able to enter your mind not only without your permission(which is of course possible already) but without your knowledge as well..." General Damon lay unconscious on the tiled floor as his first born materialized a few feet from him. Megabyte scanned the room, until he noticed his father lying there. "Dad!" he exclaimed, and went to his knees beside his father. Megabyte tried shaking the man, but to no avail. "Dad! Dad, wake up!" Megabyte placed his arms around his father, and pictured Hospital in his mind... Ami was pacing around the Ship, clicking the fingers of her right hand. Adam approached her, and tapped her shoulder. "What's wrong, Ami?" he asked. "Well, this is going to sound strange.." Amy said, her eyes slowly meeting Adam's. "Go ahead," he replied. "Well, it's just that I have this feeling...that the man I saw in my dreams, the one with the shirt on...was someone I've seen before, but I just don't know who..." Adam frowned. "Hmm..well, the harder you try to remember it, the harder it'll probably be to remember it, so just relax." Jade materialized in front of the other two. "Has anyone heard from Megabyte lately?" Ami and Adam looked at her and then each other. "No, come to think of it, we haven't" Adam replied. Several moments elapsed as they individually tried to raise him. Adam's voice dropped in pitch. "Something must be wrong. Let's teleport to the Damon residence." "Megabyte! Megabyte!" the three telepaths called out, vocally and mentally. Ami sighed. "There's no trace of him. Where could he be?" "For that matter, " Adam continued, "Why can't we contact him?" Jade turned her head, looking around the room. "Let's look around to see if anything's out of place." Half an hour elapsed as the three combed Megabyte and Gen. Damon's place. Jade called out first. "I think we're at a dead end here." Adam called back. "I'm afraid I agree. I can't find anything." Ami chewed her lower lip, lifting various items in General Damon's bedroom. She was just about to make her own report when she saw something that made her gasp.... "Guys, guys!" she called out mentally, "I think you'd better get in here!" Adam and Jade materialized. "What have you found?" Adam said. Ami picked up the object she had spotted and showed it to Adam and Jade. It was a picture. "Do you recognize who this is?" she asked. Adam nodded his head. "Of course..it's General Damon." Ami shook her head in response. "Yes..but it's more..." Ami turned her back to the other two as she quickly considered something. She turned back around. "How do we know when someone else is breaking out, becoming one of us?" Jade looked at Ami. "Usually when they're in danger, and they teleport away from the danger. The beacon lands them in the drink, and then they teleport back out..." Ami clicked her fingers as she had done on the Ship. "But that's just for the scant few of us who are tomorrow people right now. And that seems to be something indicative of people who break out at our age..." Adam raised an eyebrow. "What are you saying?" "If a tomorrow person was breaking out and they were not a teenager, might they begin in another fashion? Maybe something less traumatic?" Adam and Jade looked at each other. "Okay, perhaps...but we just don't know..." Adam said. Ami took a step back from them, and took a deep breath. "The thing is, you two...I do think we know now...The man who Megabyte and I saw in the dream...I recognized him just a moment ago, here... Adam and Jade looked at each other and Ami incredulously, digesting what she was saying. "The man in our dreams is the same person as the picture here of Damon when he was in college...and I now think that General Damon is Breaking Out....."

What interests me, is how many of the books are meant to be available in public libraries over here. I have travelled to many, many libraires trying to find copies, and the books are listed on their catalogues, but they are never on the shelves. And when I ask, I find that none of them have been borrowed in ten years or so. Looks like someone went around and 'borrowed' them all in 1987. According to the guy who owns the bookshop where I found the book last Wednesday, he ha TP books every now and again. He's going to call me if he gets any of them again. He didn't realise that anyone was interested in them, and just 'shelved them with the Dr Who books'. Unfortunately due to my heroic leap across the bookshop to snatch the book off the shelf, before somebody else got it (I don't know who, the shop was almost empty at the time), he now knows there is a market, and I'm likely to have to pay more than $1 for any future books. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: heidi8@cris.com (Heidi Tandy) Subject: Re: Old Series Books (was Filmography page) Date: 16 Jan 1997 20:50:09 -0500 At 7:46 PM 1/16/97, Shaun Owen Hately wrote: >According to the guy who owns the bookshop where I found the book last >Wednesday, he ha TP books every now and again.

Oh, leave some on the shelves for me! I should be down under in, um, 11 months or so.With my husband, the major scifi book collector - he's into vintage books in a major way. Which leads me to my question, which is off-topic, but I hope that's ok.

The way they shelve paperbacks was a pain too - stacked on top of each other in bookstore type display shelving, so it takes forever to go through the whole rack if you're looking for something specific. I suspect they have been lost, stolen or chucked long since. I got Three in Three at a second hand store years ago, and a friend (a dear person who didn't like the TP herself, but knew I did) found all except Lost Gods at Bakka Books in Toronto (a great SF bookstore, if you're ever in TO) and sent them to me in about '86, including another copy of Three in Three (which has found a good home :)). Lost Gods I got from Jez last year. I don't get out to second hand bookstores as often as I used to, but I keep my eyes open, and if I ever see any of the books, I'll buy them and let you know.

I've never seen any still listed on libraries here except The British Library, which is hardly the place to go for a quick look if you don't have a copy.

Dealers here don't really think they are that valuable, and particularly if you are buying something else seem willing to discount them if you push a little. The least I have paid is around 20p, but that book was in less than good condition. (Going off topic a bit, the Timeslip novelisation is well worth finding too if you can, even though it only covers the first 2 stories.)

I know there are lots of other things to do and see (and I plan to fit in as many as possible) but it isn't a real trip if I can't hit a few bookstores. Anyway, making Marcel wait while I browse is my revenge for all the car talk I have to sit through while we're at International Mini Meet, which is the real reason we're going (assuming air fares come down to the point where we can both afford to go).
