23 traps filled with weird science

[ectobabble]

Hey! Uh, I'd put a filter up, but honestly it'd be really super-crazy-broad anyway, and I might as well just tell you all ...

I'm gonna be bringing my PKE meter outside today, and taking some readings of the old, original Dead Zone border from like, five years ago. Zelman was nice enough to give me a really good map of where the edge of everything used to be, and I was hoping I could find some sort of residual energy signature left over from when the borders shifted - kind of like the rings in a tree.

So, if anyone's interested in helping me collect some data, meet me out by the duck pond and we'll get this thing organized! I have one other PKE meter if anyone wants to help me take readings...

[and true to his word, he'll be waiting out by the duck pond in his ghostbusting coveralls, a sheaf of carefully-made copies of Zelman's map tucked in his journal in its harness, one PKE meter hanging from his belt, and the other in his hand. let's solve some mysteries, gang!]

Yeah. I mean - look at what we found in Libet. We know it's capable of 900-level phenomena. Not that I'm goin' around wishin' for it ...

[He barely glances up.]

Why not? I am. The data would be invaluable.

[ectobabble]

<[he frowns worriedly] … Yeah ... but we'd have to survive it.

[workaphilic]

[He grins a little to himself.]

Minor detail.

[Ray laughs. he swears, every single thing out of your mouth reminds him even more of Egon]

'Course. I mean ... we've made it this far, right?

[workaphilic]

Precisely. [He tilts his head at the meter.] No risk, no reward, isn't that how the saying goes?

[ectobabble]

Somethin' like that! ... That, and -- oh, T.S Eliot put it a great way, once. "Only those who risk going too far will know how far they can go." It's probably not exact, but -- I always liked that one.

[workaphilic]

[There is a complete lack of recognition on his face and in his tone. Who the fuck is T.S. Eliot and why should he care what he has to say?]

The logic isn't completely sound, but it fits, I suppose.
