-----------------------------------------------------
It's been a few days since I stopped obsessing over mating and I'm amazed at how much work I’ve gotten done since then. I finally went back to work on my Gestalt Atom Randomizer. After working on it for close to a day I was finally able to interface it with my existing antenna. I was now able to receive a few more channels on my TV that were being broadcast from a greater distance away. Although the Gestalt Atom Randomizer did improve their quality it was far from working correctly. And as I examined it closely I noticed that an aluminum oxide layer always formed quickly on the sheet of Aluminum I was using which greatly affected the aluminum's properties. The exterior of the aluminum was the point at which it made contact with the rest of the machine, and if there was an oxide layer on it the signal from deeper down in the aluminum would have trouble getting through. There was a very simple way of keeping the aluminum from forming an oxide layer, but in order to build it myself I would need some parts from Radioshack. And, as always seemed to be the case, I did not have the necessary money to purchase them. So I put the Gestalt Atom Randomizer on hold once again until I could come up with enough money to purchase what I needed.
But that was only a side project. The main thing I had focused on these past few days was my human observations. I had fallen behind schedule quite a bit and was now trying to compensate for lost time. I was already supposed to have been done observing "The shady side of town" and have moved on to other parts of the city, but due to my obsession with mating I had not even started.
The first thing I almost always did when beginning my human observations was to ask my fellow Animorphs about their knowledge on the subject. I had gotten to ask Tobias about "The shady side of town" once while we were keeping surveillance on some possible Yeerk activity, but he really didn't have much information despite living there for himself with his Uncle not too long ago.
He told me that he rarely went outside after dark and that most people didn’t either. I figured that it had something to do with the shade, but he just laughed when I asked him about it. [Yeah,] he said back, [it has to do with the shade I guess. There's a lot of shady people who live there.]
So therefore the people in this part of town had to be the shady ones. The part of the city was most likely named after them and not because there was extra shade there. But that posed an interesting question. Why were the people shady? Were they abnormally tall and therefore created more shade than an average person? Tobias had lived there, but he was an average height...
This wasn't making any sense. And when I asked Tobias about it he just laughed again and told me that he'd explain it to me later. He had just seen Jake and Marco coming in to relieve us of our surveillance position and we were both very tired that day. Besides, it was getting dark and we needed to fly back quickly to our respective homes.
That was only about a day or so ago, but I didn’t have time to wait for him to explain. I needed to start the second part of my observation as quick as possible. I hoped that I could figure it out for myself, and if I couldn’t then I would have to find Tobias and have him explain it to me later.
The second part of my observation plan consisted of me actually observing. I needed a broad view of things at first to see what needed to be further observed and what I could deduce by general observations. That's why I normally morphed into my northern harrier morph and got a good view from the sky.
The first time I made a pass of “the shady part of town” was a few days ago around the middle of the day. I took extensive notes on what I observed and I have already added them to my other human observation notes, but there are a few important things I still want to mention here.
The first thing that I noticed about “the shady side of town” was that there was no reason for it to be shadier than any other part of the city. In fact, most of the buildings there were smaller than they were in other parts of the city, so one could even argue that this part of town was the least shady. That was an important thing to notice because it confirmed what Tobias had already told me. It was the people who lived here who were shady, not the part of the city itself.
The reason I needed to confirm what Tobias had said is that quite often the rest of The Animorphs were either misinformed on a particular subject or just plain wrong. Take mating for example. I had asked Tobias about it quite a while ago and he told me that it was a very private thing and that no one really talked about it much, yet there was an entire television channel dedicated to it which anyone could receive (if they deciphered the coding anyway; quite an easy thing to do). So if the physical location wasn’t shady then the only thing remaining to be classified as shady, as Tobias had said, were the people.
I had gotten a look at quite a few people during my few days of observation, and some of them appeared somewhat larger than average, at least from the sky; although that didn’t hold true for everyone. Just as everywhere else there was always a diverse group of people. A large number of them were tall and had a skin color close to that of Cassie’s, but there were also quite a few shorter ones who had a skin color close to that of Marco. And as always there were exceptions. For these general observation purposes though I found that those were the two main groups.
Anyway, these two different types of humans didn’t really seem to interact with each other very much. From what I saw the darker skinned people tended to socialize with the darker skinned people while the lighter skinned people tended to socialize with the lighter skinned people. They often moved around in packs and all the members would wear close to the same colored artificial skin. I still have not completely figured out the purpose of these packs, but my best guess would be that they’re some kind of social organization. I have seen many examples of authentic human organizations and humans seem to enjoy being a part of them, but what purpose they served in “the shady side of town” I wasn’t sure. I would need to move on to step three of my observation, morphing into a human and observing things first hand, before I could figure out what purpose these organizations were formed for.
But other than these organizations I had relatively little else to observe. The only other thing I was wondering about was why people were living in “the shady side of town”, and that was a very general question. It would take until step four, interacting with other humans, for me to learn the answer to that. And I was really only curious because “the shady side of town” didn’t seem to have quite the same standard of living that other parts of the city and its suburbs had.
Many of the buildings in this part of the city looked old and worn. Many were beginning to crumble and many of them appeared to be abandoned. The streets were in bad condition as well; full of garbage and holes, but the automobiles that drove by seemed to be in quite the same condition. I didn’t get a real good look into the living quarters of many of the residents, but from what I’d seen many of the windows were blocked with either metal bars or possibly something more concealing like bricks or wood. And when I did get a clear view into a living quarter it seemed small, cramped, and not very desirable. Why humans continued to live in substandard living quarters like these when there were plenty of other options I wasn’t sure, but it was something I was intent on finding out.
Other than those two things “the shady side of town” had seemed to be like other sections of the city, so there wasn’t much more to observe. But as I was debating what to do next I remember that Tobias had told me that human activity at night was very different than in the day. Even though he had told me that most people stayed inside their living quarters after dark I was still curious as to why. What went on during the night that people needed to stay in their living quarters? Even though I wasn’t expecting to see much I decided to dedicate this coming night to observation of “the shady side of town”. I would’ve waited until I had come back to write this entry, but I had a short time to wait as the Zackuthurian detector I was working on stabilized (a small side project I’ve been working on). I plan to write a short entry tomorrow about what I’ve observed tonight and what my future plans are for my observation of “the shady side of town” before more likely than not beginning the second part of my observation.
