Borodino posted 11-11-98 11:36 PM ET
Now roughly half-way up the hallowed mount, the lowly and humble paladin Borodino finds yet another mountain cave shrine. [You all know the drill by now but I'll contiues anyway.] The lowly spellweaver removes his talaria upon entering the sacred shrine. Placing his dagger and distaff next to the inviting bed of straw, he first offers libations and supplications to the almighty Olympians. He then opens his small diamond vial of dragon's blood to heal the wounds from his latest battle: the integral. [Those who understand calculus and its effects on my ability to post here are the only one's who will understand this.] He then pulls out a thick wool blanket from the roughly-hewn chest in the corner of the MCS, weaves the threads of sleep [C B A C] to add him attaining a relaxing state, and falls to sleep, thanking the Transcended Ones for their Providence.

The humble spellweaver climbs the path up the fabled mount. He encounters another traveler on the journey.
"Hold, who goes there."
"It is I, the Avatar of Avalon."
"An envoy from King Arthur?"
"As you like..."
"Come to pay homage to the gods?"
"As all do who hear of their storied power."
"Walk with my friend, and tell me of your quests."

As one of the newer gods I decide to accompany Borodino on the way up.
"So, how ya doing? Any questions you'd like to ask?"

jsorense is collecting wild mushrooms on the slopes of a beautiful mountain. In a forest of quaking aspen, the golden foliage shimmering like millions of coins in the gentle breeze, he finds the varieties he seeks in abundance but takes only what he needs for cooking and medicines. While giving thanks to the spirits that had provided so generously he sees two figures talking and walking up a narrow rocky path. "Ah," he says to himself, "More pilgrims seeking wisdom at Magic Mountain."

Upon reaching the top of Magic Mountain, Borodino and I find a box. Inside the box is a trasure chest. Inside the chest is a backpack. Inside the backpack is a book. A book on Ethical Calculus.
"Um, nice climb with you Borodino, but let's try and climb the right mountian next time. You can have the ethical calc book. And I'm glad you're back online, I guess it means you can handle the secrets enclosed inside."

Suddenly, one of the older Olympians materializes over Borodino.
Au: If you go to Za'hu'dum, you will die.
Borodino:Wha?
Au:You must understand.

[DEEP BOOMING GOD VOICE OF YYYH] Borodino. You have not yet created an ice cube of Absolut zero. I will hault your journey until you prove to me that you can create such an essential ice cube.........for an alcoholic.
Your faithful & hell-bent God,
YYYH

You cannot create anything at absolute ZERO !!!
It wouldn't exist would it ???
Absolutely no movement or energy, wouldn't it just collapse on itself ???
Anyone ???

In the magic world of the gods you can DJ! Especially ABSOLUT zero. Notice the spelling. If you don't notice it, think along the lines of vodka.
It'll make the water of yours cold & intoxicating very fast!
Your faithful & hell-bent NIMadier general,
YYYH

As I recall, JCN made an ice cube of ABSOLUT zero. Except it cheated I think and only came up with a standard ice cube.
