Trainer-
Thanks for compiling and updating this info. There is the tiniest little word bothering me and although I am ashamed of being so bothered by this small detail, I am still going to ask you to address it in your next update if you understand my point of view. Can you please change the word "inventor" to "developer" when you discuss Epogen. For the most part, scientists and researchers develop medications not really invent them. This has been naging at me for quite some time (yes, this says much about me...I know). I just thought with the excitement about the latest video that not many people would take the time to tell me to be quiet and stop harping on semantics. But pleeeeease, trainer. Please. (inventor to developer?)pleeease help the nagging of this trivial point in my brain to stop...

You got it Teach! No point is trivial. Thanks for pointing it out.

Although I agree with you, gogo, "developer" sounds better and should probably be used, ("discovered" actually might be more appropriate), Amgen uses the term "inventor":

5th paragraph (Aranesp is the 2nd drug developed/discovered/invented by Amgen used for anemia treatment. The first was EPOGEN.)

I would agree, but it does sound better. "Developed" just dances off the page...and rings like a soothing song in my ears when I read it out loud...
These Amgen people are scientiific types. They're all about scientific mumbo jumbo and saving people's lives and curing illnesses through scientific research and all that. They don't know the beauty of language. Sure they can find ways to increase red blood cells and help humanity and such, but in a poetry emergency, these scientists are nowhere to be found, which is probably for the best because in the world of lilting and flowing word choice, they really are no help. I do have great respect for this kind of scientific work and discovering ways to help people with anemia (which happens to be a lovely word in itself.) Don't get me wrong.

Tachyon is believed to be the younger sister of the girl Gemma talked about who was selected to participate in "the Ceremony" years ago. The family disappeared from a commune run by the Order. Later, Tachyon herself apparently worked for the Order in some capacity before leaving and becoming a counter-espionage agent working
against the Order.
You can learn more about Tachyon

Yes, gogo, you made me laugh. My brother could never write a poem about anemia!

You're making me blush.
Now that the rar file has been cracked, it seems like a good time for an update.
The Theta is similar to an Egyptian symbol that represents the Sun, and the Mu was derived from the Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol for water. So the Sun equals Ra...and the water equals Naunet? Or maybe Poseidon? When combined this "watcher" symbol establishes that the Order rules and watches over all that exists in between.
