I just had an interesting thought, ladies and gentlemen.
I was talking to Phaeton via AOL Instant Messenger a moment ago, and it suddenly occurred to me: What if everything recorded in the Japanese monster movies made starting in the first half of the 20th Century were BASED UPON ACTUAL EVENTS ? That is, what if Godzilla, Rodan, Gammera, Mothra, Ghidorah and all of the other creatures made famous by the Japanese film industry over the last half-century or so were REAL, Pre-Awakening sightings of Dragons and other such creatures common to the world of SHADOWRUN, nearly a century later? Anyone else have any thoughts on the subject? --Foreigner |

I'll thank you NOT to lump me and Phaeton into the same group, Sahandrian.
EVERYBODY knows that I'M sociopathic, and as we all know, that's a personality disorder, NOT a mental illness. :) --Foreigner |

Hmmm...I have to agree with Foreigner's theory.
But what was Mecha-Godzilla, then? Maybe a machine made to fight the horrors in the future? |

They should start rounding them all up now. Y'know, so that later they can be ready for GODZILLA VS VERJIGORM: DESTROY ALL HORRORS. :)

...Yeah. It's hard to hide something like that, short of having a mad scientist-esque hidden private military base.
