AI Thread Summary
Survival on a deserted island requires immediate focus on finding fresh water, as it is the most critical resource. Building a shelter should follow closely, using natural materials and tools available. Food sources, including fruits, berries, and game, must be identified, while avoiding anything washed ashore. Establishing sanitation practices is essential for health, and a leadership structure can help maintain morale and organization among the group. Long-term survival strategies may include creating signal fires and exploring the island for resources.

Arildno, since Wooley very loudly proclaimed "I am so gay!", I assume that there's one social dynamic taken care of.
Yeah; it's spreading..:devil:
Soon, Satyrs' Isle will finally come into being.
I'll gladly have you on board the Nasty Boys team for offesive/defesive purposes.
I can be rather effusive at times, it will be interesting to be offesive or defesive for a change.

This is really difficult because in another thread i promised to be good, and as
Kia can not have babies, i think some one is hidding the truth, where was Hypatia the last few weeks? and i haven't seen Lisa about for a while, she did
seem to be putting on weight rather fast.
How dare you?I'm not crazy!You can stay in your imaginary island but I left it last year!In fact, If I stayed here, I would never let this scandal happen!(He's drunk again and saying nonesenses again.It's a long time I'm loosing weight!)


Why couldn't KIa have a child?

As i only have three months left, i was wondering what to do, i think for the
first two hours i will revise my spelling, may i use your stone Hypatia?
The next hour i will do some sin repenting.
but i worry who will keep the rest of this crew in order when i am gone :frown:
I think for the next hour i will write a code of conduct, "wollies law", i suppose,
it will not be long before one of them breaks the," law", so i will write the,
"wrath of ram", that tells the story of the beast that comes at night and dispenses retribution . :biggrin:

No, it was a methane "clathrate" eruption, or something similar. When a gas bubbles up through a liquid, such that the density decreases dramatically, the liquid, in this case - seawater - cannot support objects, such as ships - which sink.

From now on Astro is head non sense interpreter. :biggrin:

I see where all the confussion comes from now, in another thread some one
took my, "P", and now some one is pinching my "Rs".

It is after all a REAL island

At first I thought it was Anglesey, but then I saw the volcanoes. It is Hawaii?

Yes, well then... let's get on with the essential preliminary step of subduing your father. As a proper Canuk, I did of course have 6 rolls of duct tape in my pockets when we cracked up. So half a metre for each of his arms, a quarter metre for his ankles, a 10cm strip across his mouth, and what do we do about... (never mind, I have a Band-Aid). On the other hand, if he isn't overly protective we can just leave him be. :-p (Did I mention how much I love that half a bikini you're wearing?)

Wollie runs at the sound of the horn, and finds Hypatia in distress,
was it an accident or were you attacted?

You poor fool, subduing me would be the easy part, taking on the daughter
of Wolram will be like fighting Zena, Bodica, and Cat Woman all rolled into one,
when she has finished with you :devil: Wolram and Kia will rule the isle, with
justness, and good treatment to all, "as long as you toe the line" :devil:

Right, then. That makes a lot more sense. I've heard about them, but didn't know the name. Supposedly a good candidate for Bermuda Triangle-type disappearances, but I wonder if the lifeboat would have floated in something like that or if maybe there's another explanation. The idea of a calcite reaction worried me because it would indicate one spookily huge influx of CO2 from somewhere.

Hey, we're armed up and ready to go, but until Hypatia tells us what happened we don't have a direction. Astro might be able to track somebody through this kind of growth, but I sure can't. Anyhow, there's a good chance that if there was another person a fault, he'll end up in one of the traps. They're marked clearly enough for us, but someone who doesn't know about them wouldn't even notice.

Well, she's disappeared again. I wonder if it has anything to do with Hypatia's stone?

I have the nose and ears of a dog - two of the reasons I used to be known as "Dogface". The other reason is that I would weeks between shaves, until I stopped shaving altogether.

Your thinking the stone has some sort of supernatural power?

So it was spirits that kept you away, and it seems they were not supernatural I think you had better have some of Moon Bs root tea
it good for every thing ,"cleans up rusty metal a treat", then we can find
you something to do.

The lifeboat was thrown clear - it took us some time in the water before some clever chap spotted it a couple hundred yards off.
Then unfortunately it hit that reef...

Something about men with beards, perhaps. :biggrin:

I have been greeted/treated as a rabbi, Arab, Greek, and when I was in E. Europe, several monks suggested I join their monestaries.

Oh, my head! Brewnog, you're going to have to move that still further from camp if you keep mixing stuff that gives off such fumes! Thankfully the wind changed directions and I came to. How long have I been out?

You missed quite a bit Moon B, Evo, Hypatia has lump on here head, we are not
sure but we think it was a deliberate attack, she found some papers in a grave by the stone, that we think some one didn't want found.
