> Harrumph, I was referring to terms as "bionic" and "grow" so that
the uneducated humans on the list would understand what I mean.
Always a necessary process, yet we know that uneducated humans, in efforts to duplicate the dwarven processes, will take such terms and erroneously use them, ultimately producing Chaos.
> With "grow" I meant a process similar to the one used to "grow"
crystals in watery baths from salts.
Surely our Quicksilver specialists will show that this is merely a transmutation of substances and that there is no true growth in this process.
> The same process Tin Dwarves uses to create Nilmergs and Jolanti, as
well as Gobblers and Gremlins (tho only after sending application form
56.a.Fe.378 to the Iron department to check that the ordering of a
Gobbler was correct - these are military material!).
Unless application form 99.00-Au57Fe was used by the Gold department for the appropriate demonstration of the use of Gobblers to twenty-seventh work cycle Iron dwarfs.
> Yikes! THIS is heresy! Only heretics would allow this instantaneous
and morally inferior unity with the Machine! Think that by this, a
mere level 4.8 could impersonate a full diamond dwarf if the correct
mechanisms were incorporated!
Clearly not. For it is well known that the original dwarf arm allows for greater manipulations and applications than such repairs and thus is closer to the ultimate use attained by a full diamond dwarf. The artificial substitution, while allowing a given dwarf to achieve a specific capability demonstrable by a diamond dwarf, clearly cannot achieve the range of actions which a diamond dwarf can perform and thus will always be inferior to the original.
> This Harald "Smith"(!) is obviously an agent of a coming military
coup instigated by the Instant Mechanisation heretics!
On the contrary, it is well known that this unit derives from and serves as a mouthpiece to the resident decamony at the 1st Central Pelorian manufacturing center, commonly referred to by humans as the Imther Mountains (though this latter designation is clearly incorrect since the majority of the manufacturing center lies beneath said rock quarries).
> I think the Vegetarian heresy was started by Tin and Quicksilver
dwarves. They argue that when you fix a machine, the first thing you
correct is the most damaged part. The most damaged part of the World Machine is obviously that of Growth.
It is clear that these Quicksilver dwarfs (with whom I agree did start said heresy, just as they started the Openhanded heresy) have a mistaken impression of how to repair the World Machine. Replacing the most damaged part clearly does not fix what caused the damage in the first place. Does it make sense to "grow" a new Spike when there are no supporting beams to hold it in place? Clearly not. The repair of the World Machine must take place following carefully architected plans laid out by great leaders such as Kagozhim Gearmesher and others of his generation.
