I would say that one should listen a lot first in this ML. and look up the
archives (which has a search feature), and maybe www.gundamproject.com, and
then check the links therein. As for all this NT this and that, well, all
we can be sure of is that NTs tend to have extraordinary abilities which
are at best mystical and at worst are deus ex machinas.

I once subscribed to the Eva ML. I quickly unsubscribed after a few weeks.
It's an interesting place, but it isn't to my taste. I see where your
debating style came from.
>>> NTs never had god-like power...they were powerful, but not god-like.
>> Not for Amuro and Char - they are basically considered God in Gundam
>>world - most UC timeline fans would acknowledge that both pilots would be

actually, it's a bit hazy where some of the skill ends and the NT abilities
begin. But then, this is anime.
>>know about NT - everybody is either afraid of them or want to use them for

>Another reason to like Quess...^_^
sorry, no can do on that. She has an inborn arrogance (or is it basic
insecurity?) to her. yes, she needs to be understood and all that, but
that sort of thing is in a way earned, not deserved or demanded.
If I wanted to rage against the dying of the light, I would have brought a
flashlight.
