[edit] Industrial Revolution?

HOW is the industrial revolution an example of technology's failure in the face of nature?! I am taking this out.

It is a bit of a stretch.
Unless that's meant to imply that technology can't be reconciled with pastoral/natural values.
I think the most salient aspect of the machinery devised in order to maintain the beams is that it represents a loss of faith in magic, and is one of the reasons for their erosion, above and beyond the quest by the CK to destroy them.
I think the machinery used by North Central Positronics-and utilized by the Crimson King-represents the same basic concept, i.e. a failure of faith.

[edit] Positronics and Electronics

Has anyone thought of how Positronics could be a play of the word "Electronics" similar to the way electrons are to positrons? Chuayw2000 11:50, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
