The way the raw materials here act truly do fascinate me ( Read more... )

A lot of people rather face an unknown then sit around worrying over it. At least if they go after it, there's that small satisfaction that you did something about it.

It seems more likely that nothing truly will change as a result of the actions of these raw materials, no matter the effort they put in.

Oh but it will. Just because it might not be a physical change; just having some sort of a victory over fate can bolster a person's confidence.

That keeps people from falling into thoughts of being stuck or even hopelessness.

That feeling of hopelessness...despite the amount of those here that attempt nothing, and those who are aware that as much as they may try, they can accomplish nothing, it is not truly present here. As such, you may be right about that. However, there are some things that will never change, as long as we remain here.

It isn't. That says a lot about the people here and just what they might be able to do if given the time and chance.

Of course. Not all change can happen in a lifetime.

In that case, what do you believe they can be capable of, with so little knowledge? Some may believe that "willpower" is a deciding factor in certain cases, and yet...we are at quite a disadvantage.

Knowledge is gained through experience, right? So with all the different types of people here, and the different lives they've lead. The potential for a lot of good work is well everywhere.

Oh, willpower is more of a driving force then a deciding factor.

That depends on what they have learned through their experiences, and how well they have learned to put that knowledge to use.

To you, what would be a deciding factor?

Any kind of experience helps out. Bad to learn from and good to emulate.

[Okay she pauses here a bit to think about this all.]

Time, I'd have to say. Even if it's something you can't really control. That's how thing are decided; because even if you have the will to finish something- without the time it's really not going to matter.

That is true...whether or not they have any effect, though, is up to the raw materials in question, rather than the experiences themselves.

It is quite an inconvenience. I find it interesting, that rather than choosing certain factors that may bring success, you chose one that will, in almost every case, mark failure.

We have a good amount of raw material. Maybe not very modern, yet- but no civilization started out on top.

Of course; a deciding factor isn't though of on making something successful. It's what has to be used or avoided in order to make sure failure doesn't happen.

They are slightly more varied than if they were to have taken their experiments from one time and place, of course.

In that case, since one is often unable to stop the passage of time or bend time to their will...to have such a factor against them is truly quite unfortunate.

Of course; but variety is something we have a lot of here.

It is, but that's why you learn time management. You work with time, and plan things. Making sure you give room for anything unexpected.

[Pause]

Which is probably going to happen a lot in this place.

Despite the differences among those here, it is quite interesting.

The very existence of this place, after all...is something unexpected. As a result, it may be difficult to prepare for what may happen.
