More typoes

And finished again.  Whew!  It was just the kind of thing I needed to improve my mood.
I think I saw every variant of /fire ?bees?/i there was in the text and concordance, just pick one and stick with it?

Double that to give him room for expansion for an
amazingly huge 40 gigabytes.

Like I said, laugh at me.

Ahahahahaha.  The sad part here is that we now have with stock parts with a 256GB iPhone, although, to be fair, Doug's helmet does have a headphone jack.  Moore's Law is brutal, even if it does seem to be slowing down.  If we assume a doubling every 4 years, we still get another 6 doublings by 2040, or a 16TB GENOM iPhone.  1PB isn't out of the range of possibility, either.  Though I'm not entirely sure I'd want memristors near Doug's field, if that's the way the tech goes.
HARUSPEX - that's basically what AI/machine learning/big data is starting to do today.  I think this prediction will turn out to be pretty good.

Uh... I can't read German.  Or DNS errors, for that matter.

"Holy... that looks kinda like a tropical depression
forming." ... "Just like that freak twister..." ... a monstrous
black funnel cloud
Okay, let me say flat out — I know that a tropical depression/hurricane
is a different beastie, mechanically and visually, from a twister.
But this is a magically-created and magically-maintained storm,
responding to Doug's subconscious mind, and it doesn't have to work
or look like its natural counterparts.

I think the word that best describes what he did here is mesocyclone, which is quite real.  Although if you mess with the fluid dynamics with a little magic, it's definitely possible to get other forms.  We know so little about atmospheric dynamics on other planets, but they're very different from Earth.

I did the same, taking the moment to consider my answer as I
dried my hands on the towel hung from a ring by the sink. "I'm
thinking that maybe he and I were analogues -- different
expressions of the same potential, the same person. I could have
been him, and he could have been me, had events followed other
courses in both our worlds."

She shuddered. "That's disturbing."

"Yeah," I said. "It is, isn't it?"

In retrospect this is perhaps the most postmodern thing I've ever read.  A person writing about their character who roleplayed as another character who the original writer roleplayed, questioning if the first character and second character were actually the same person.  And by extension asking if the writer is a hero, villain, or both.  And at this point, even the copyright notices start to look like part of the story as "real" names and character names blur together into a fourth wall gestalt, even as the fictional creation killed the creator, who is also fictional.  Am I even real?  And if I'm fictional, why am I so boring most of the time?  Oh God, am I a self-insert?!
