Saisieni kainio,
I'm writing to make a public request for survey data that I can use for my thesis on predisposition factors in capsule-induced cerebromedullospinal disconnection (CICD).
There are many terms used colloquially such as mind-lock, wet-graving and in academic circles such as capsule-engendered asensory catatonia and capsule-induced autonomic neuropathy.
These simply describe variations in what is ultimately a debilitating disorder that has effected many since the Jove introduced hydrostatic pod technology over a century ago. With life expectancies ever increasing even without cloning technologies, this disorder (abhorrently still incurable in its severest forms) has left countless families suffering in its wake.
I have spent years championing research in this field; it is unfortunate that funders only see a statistically insignificant proportion of capsuleers afflicted based on 5 year old secondary reports of papers and talks given by an Amarrian researcher, Reverend Doctor Rakban Nadapur (primary sources are still withheld by Amarrian officials despite my best efforts.)
The unfortunate truth, however, is that not enough is known about the causes and possible predispositions to CICD and it will continue to afflict thousands. This is why I implore you, for your own sake if not for others, to support such research.
I am currently working towards my Sc.D within the Neuroscience Department of the School of Applied Sciences (woefully underfunded as I have consistently expressed to the board) and I am ethically bound to declare assets provided by Zainou Biotech that prohibit stronger academic ties to the University of Caille Neuroscience Foundation.
So I come to a public channel to request that in some small way you could contribute data towards a small part of my research. I have developed a questionnaire that requests no personally identifiable data, confidentiality is therefore a moot point, and surveys factors such as bloodlines, piloting activities and personal experiences of phenomena encountered. I'd like to reiterate that the questionnaire contains manually entered fields and requests no personally identifiable data. The form is hosted on some back water server that the department can hardly afford and you can access it below.
Thank you for your time.
Anvatkaa,

Your thing is broken.
I entered all the data, hit submit, and it tells me I've missed 'necessary information' and sticks a red star by every question. although my eyes were open they might have just as well've been closed

I showed this to a servant of mine who works on the computer and he said the problem is with your code. I hope that gives you something to focus on while you troubleshoot. although my eyes were open they might have just as well've been closed

I'm afraid the cheap server hosting the questionnaire might be incompatible with the standard Neocom browser. Until we can upgrade, I hope that you'll be able to use an alternative browser? |

Which part is the browser?
My servant said the problem was with your code. Have you tried rebooting your code? That's what I do when something on my neocomm isn't working. although my eyes were open they might have just as well've been closed

I've tried to fill out your form in a number of browsers and have not been able to complete the form - all of the drop-down items do not register my input. I am not sure whether I should supply information, however - specifics of my life may skew your data set. |

Your patience is very much appreciated I have several reports that the system is taking numerous entries without any problems and mostly through browsers not installed on standard Neocoms.
Ms. Hanaya, perhaps your servant can provide you with another browser? One of my undergraduates suggested one that was named after a base metal (the name slips my mind) I think Chromium or Nickel. To lift your servant's spirits you can tell them that they are correct about the coding incompatibilities with the Neocom suite, however we simply don't have the funding for an overhaul. And again, thank you for your patience, you will be helping many.
Scherezad, any information you can provide will help. In fact, if you feel they may skew the data, it may in fact be the breakthrough we need for this research.
All support is greatly appreciated. |

Can't say I've ever had anything that might be a side-effect of neural interfacing, but I'm a fairly 'young' Capsuleer.
I've had a myriad of minor health problems, but all are unrelated to time in the pod, so eh.
It's an interesting subject even if foreign to me, I'll keep a watchful eye on it. Dirty heretical mud-child, reporting in. |

Telsa, I admire your gallant efforts in this field. A word of warning, however, if you wish to maintain a distinguished academic career; nothing good has ever come of anyone pursuing this line.
Contact me, as we should arrange a meeting that does not breach your Zainou Biotech contracts. |

The questionnaire is problematic, it does not take in account non registered CONCORD bloodlines. I do not know how to fill it. Also, I would need the inclusion of the 10th implant slot. |

Survey Completed. However, I was under the impression that our resistance to mind-lock is the trait which permits us to become capsuleers in the first place, or at least the sort of independent, non-government-affiliated sort of capsuleers that we are.
It's the genetic trait which allows us to interface with the pod and then disconnect again - while the ordinary human gets stuck and can't get their mind back into their own body - which qualifies us for this. It would make sense that few people possessing this trait would somehow suffer from mind-lock anyways.
Unless, of course, you are talking about something different which happens to have a very similar description. |

I'd like to add that for the "have any of your clones suffered from...." question, I considered my original body to be a clone.

I would like to iterate as a firm believer of strengths in the most observably 'weak' of conditions that the condition itself does stipulate that liquid functional intelligence is wholly intact and that only 'the interface between behavioural predispositions and physiological function 'is the criteria for a wet grave.
That being said I would debate and posit that Sansha and perhaps even the one folklore refers to as 'The Broker' may suffer from this condition.
All the rumours surrounding multiple active clones indicate, to me at least, that the individuals have long since surpassed their crystalline requirement for a 'singular presence', the kind of presence that all free moving physical entities need for identity, in order to perform the tasks they are observed as performing.
All of the above said; I feel that the research is hindered by the lack of funding and I am glad to hear of your efforts.
As I am no expert, I am reluctant to provide the information you require as I am still able to move around when not in my pod and I am therefore superfluous datum in the research. |

I have submitted my questionnaire as well.
You may be interested to note that, on more than one occassion, I have suffered from a prolonged case of an "identity/memory bleedover" with another, intimately-involved capsuleer, and a few cases of what can be best described as an invasive attempt by a foreign force to initiate a form of mindlock on myself. Both instances are interconnected, though the 'foreign force' in the second case is not the capsuleer of the former.
I'd be willing to share details with you over a scheduled appointment, or whatever you prefer. |

I have contributed and will encurage my Corp to do the same.
On an off note, is there anyway you would produce a public report of the data? I am very much interested in the results. CEO, SHADOWKNIGHTsecurites-į|| -į"Your-įLight in the Darkness." |

I have submitted my answers to the questionnaire. I do wonder if this condition is acute or chronic in nature though. I haven't experienced any issues as such, but I also transfer/recycle clones on a regular basis. One consideration that I see that is not covered in the survey is the distinctions between medical clones and jump clones. In my understanding, if "time in clone" is a factor, then over time these symptoms should manifest themselves in the reusable jump clones in a greater proportion to the medical kind. Of course it would depend on how often you require the use of your medical clone services. Diablo Ex Machina - "I'm not here to fix your problem" |
