Everyone has access to clean water, air and food. There are paved roads everywhere. There is free education up through high school. Students who qualify get free tuition and room and board at the various colleges and universities. The Black Tower has relocated to the Southern Continent and they take no part in world affairs, but they do maintain recruiting offices in most of the towns and cities. When a man is found who can channel, they sponsor a huge celebration, pay his parents a large stipend and ship him south for training. AS are encouraged to marry and have children and to g -

The world situation . The last descendant of Matt and Tuon is dead, killed in the battle and won back the Seanchan continent. The new ruler is starting to look acquisitively at the Dragon Empire and has made an alliance with Shaara. The Amyrlin Seat is also the Empress. The capital has been moved to Tar Valon. Great scientific progress has been made. Gunpowder, muskets, cannon, telegraph, telephones, steamships, ironclads, lighter-than-air airships. -
"General Robert Laurel with Colonel Elaine Treherne" he said to The Keeper. "I have an appointment with the Amyrlin Seat." He was here to report the successful completion of his mission to Manetheren. It had taken nearly two years, but he had finally managed to drive the trollocs and darkfriends back into their caves in the mountains. Unfortunately the enemy had learned how to make muskets and cast artillery. He had finally caught them in a killing ground where they couldn't retreat and killed them by the thousands. He and his people were exhausted, needed to replace their losses and rest. Tar

How many Sisters did the White Tower lose.
Robert Laurel replied to Harldin's topic in Wheel of Time Books
Not a conspiracy theory. I was there. I've also worked with ATTIP, the Pentagon's UFO program. It went deep underground after the fundamentalists went after it. -

Actually it did produce actionable intelligence. Religious fundamentalist members of Congress forced it to be shut down because they thought it was opening a channel to the Devil. -

We are rediscovering lost mental abilities. When I was in the Intelligence Community I was aware of Project Stargate, the remote viewing program. They achieved an 85% accuracy rate. -

Why are you eager to get rid of the AS? -

The AS can go out and do things for the commons. Build roads, build and teach in schools. Use their powers to manufacture cheap devices to provide clean water, light and heating. Be the champion of the common people. -

Sea transport will never grow obsolete. Just look at today. It can move huge cargoes. -

Thanks. I'll have an apple cider. 19 years ago today I was pulling the bodies of friends from the rubble of the Pentagon.
