Questions Specifically for Jim, Part 3

<< < (63/100) > >>

Warden John Marcone:
I was looking over some of the WoJ's on the site and explained some of it to my mom when she asked about a couple of things.  Apologies if these have been asked all ready.

First, if Stoker and Lovecraft were "on to something", what about Mary Shelly?  Do Dr. Frankenstein's experiments exist in the DV and if so what happened to his Monster?

Second, who is Peter Pan?  NeverNever, Neverland, is there something going on here?

Canicula:
Jim, you mentioned that wizard "Listens-to-the-Wind was of the Illinois. That was a sizable confederacy
made up of a number of cognate tribes: Peoria, Kaskaskia, Michigamea, Cahokia, and Tamaroa, to name
the five most populous. Listens-to-the-Wind also spoke about the annihilation of his tribe because of his
refusal to intervene.

As one who has studied the Illiniwek in depth, I concluded that Listens-to-the-Wind spoke of one of three
battles: the devastation of Kaskaskia (Village) in 1680, the extermination of the Tamaroa sub-tribe shortly thereafter,
or the siege at Starved Rock.
Did LTW refer to one of these three historically recorded events or something lost through the ages?

This is the link to my Illini web site and the pertinent sub-unit: Scholarly citations are provided.

I think I recall WOJ to the effect that ghosts are merely psychic imprints or echoes.  If so, they don't think, are on auto-pilot and shouldn't be able to practice anything.

knnn:
Not sure if I posted this here before, but I was really hoping to ask Jim this one had I met him at ComicCon.

It can easily take a frozen turkey over a minute to fall from an airplane flying at 30,000 feet, so was there a falling turkey already that the entropy curse diverted at the last minute, or does it actually somehow reach back in time to create the desired outcome at the right moment?
