What does Ivy know?

Though, what about oral histories? Some Native American tribes, for instance, don't write all (or any) of their stories. What if Shzgoriata'gl is part of those stories?

Well maybe that's why so many tribal stories have gotten written down over the years (or the tribes/their culture wiped out).

I believe there is WOJ that the Internet is specifically included... and it's kind of stressing the functionality of the Archive.

This will explicitly also include all sorts of encryption, steganography, etc etc etc:  you need to enter the cleartext for the encryption-algorithm to work on, and BOOM, Bob's yerIvy's uncle.

I remain unclear about things that are simply art, graphics (e.g. the Mona Lisa, and films like Star Wars, etc etc etc), that don't incorporate text (modulo signatures on paintings, credits/subtitles/etc in movies, etc).

went on between you two.
Kincaid: Interesting. So HE never wrote it down either.
Ivy: I do not enjoy not knowing.
Kincaid: I enjoy you not knowing.
