[ANSTHRLD] commentary on July Iloi Commentary

[Ray Smith]

Good evening.
I discussed some of the concerns about whether or not
her lance is too big, and thus returnable as "slot
machine", or not.  She is of the opinion that if the
lance were to be drawn smaller, it would no longer be
recognizable as a lance but would appear to be a
spear.  I did remind her that this was merely
discussion and not decision.  However, since her first
device was returned, and her second apparently
disappeared into the great time-space continuum which
we bend to our will, she would like to do whatever she
can to make sure this goes both quickly and to her
liking.
Thus, she forwarded me a redraw of her device, with a
somewhat smaller lance/spear, to see if that would
work.

I am able to forward these, as (good-sized)
attachments to anyone who would like to study them, if
you would email me off-list.

Thank you,

Andrè
