Joelle says:
"'We'll begin with you and the 707.'" (p. 196)
707?
"'Just think in it for a while, get settled down. Then, through the cross-connections, I'll phase you in with me and my computer. That will have to be strictly input to you, no access to effectors, or you might ruin some delicate experiments.'" (ibid.)
In computers, an effector makes a change in an object in response to an input. So the object is outside the computer?
She says that she has open channels to a genetics lab, an accelerator and "'...Sagan Orbital.'" (p. 197) - and is "...going to look in on them...'" (ibid.)
OK. They are going to experience a genetics experiment, an event inside an accelerator and the universe as seen through an orbiting telescope? We will go into the details of this next time.
