There is one little call-out to an existing novella, though.  Ray was gracious enough to sneak something in there for me.   ;)

Already bought your book buddy  ;)

Thanks everyone for the quick answers.
Heh, no, nothing overt to try and get people to buy it...just a little nod and wink to the continuity, in a Jackpointer comment that's topical, is all.

Trying to combine the fiction and the sourcebooks again.  Practice for when we can get novels out.  ;D

I missed it, but I was trying to read it at work. Where's the shout-out so that I don't miss it again? says the braindead guy in Texas....

It's right there in the opening, just after Fastjack's intro.

Hint:  it's posted by the only one who calls him "Mitch."  ;)

Is that the sheep?

The sheep is hardly a little call-out.

No, that's what we call, in the business, a "motif." :)

Plan 9 brings up something that I had never really considered in the SR setting - The UN. I would have thought that particular organization dead and gone or at least completely irrelevant. How much power does the UN wield in the 2070's?
