Go North! I had no idea that you had already posted that my Friend. lol It's not hard to get lost in all the posts of yesteryear at this point. I can barely keep track of what I've already posted! I think it's pretty neat and I find the 142 popping up around me quite a bit too especially on the clock for some reason.

Let it be known henceforth that GoNorth was the first to catch the 142 license plate anomaly. ;)

After reading Back to the wild I have some questions, didn't know where to put them, so i'll just ask them here. English is not my native language ( I'm Russian) so please don't judge) From those few pages that do offer us Christophers writings (in his own hand) i found some misspellings (or is it some slang I'm not aware of?)
1) p128 (postcard) ..road it all the way.. - why not rode?
2) p135 ...almost through me out.. - threw?
3) p136 ...going out into there fields.. - their?
I think that he was probably so anxious when he wrote letters that he didn't focus on grammar, just let his thoughts flow on paper..
What are your thoughts about this?

oh, and on p 123 (belt section 3) it says that "undecipherable letters ELWL" - don you think that stands for lake Elwell?
