Alas, there's not enough fanfic with Chiss. Everything's either Jedi or Mandalorians, it seems.

Yup, personally I don't understand why there aren't more stories dealing with our at least equally interesting (if not more so) Chiss, or even the other races.

Right . . . time to resuscitate this thread, I reckon.

During my latest re-read of Outbound Flight, I realised something curious: the Chiss seem to use miles as their primary middle-distance unit. Thrawn tells Car'das that 10,000 visvia is rougly equivalent to 16,000 km. If you run the maths, that comes out as visvia:km being about 1.6:1 - the same ratio as miles:km.

Anybody else noticed this, or am I being particularly geeky?

Yeah, I'd noticed that too, but subsequently forgot about it. Just another brick in the wall supporting my "Earth is in the Unknown Regions" theory... grin wink

Well, here's hoping Zahn brings out a Cheunh-English dictionary soon, so that when the Chiss come knocking, we know how to do more than just swear at them!

Hi everyone, I was just wondering since it has been three months since anyone has spoken if we're still around and want to keep this thread going, if not then if we should just combine with the Thrawn Forum or fade into the night by summery senate Mod disentigrator. Whis would hopefully be suspended for a charric in our long standing honor.

What ever we decide I hope to hear from you soon and I know we'll still see each other around the Thrawn cooler batting

Sincerely,
Your Senator
