URGENT [video]
[ The video shows Matt sitting at the desk at his home office with a dead serious expression on his face. ]
I came face to face with Vanderweele, a young Vanderweele, from the time of Retrospec's founding. We might have a chance to change history for the better.
[ If that doesn't get your attention, what will? ]
Vanderweele was willing to listen when I told him about his plans to build a utopia, that in the future his ways have not yielded the type of results he wants and that unreality is still a threat. He explained his vision, he wants to assure the survival and growth of the human race, nothing wrong with that goal but as we all know he was willing to resort to betraying the other founders and experimenting on aliens to get it. Look into Halliday's work if you've forgotten what I'm talking about.
So I offered him an alternative and he was willing to listen.
Each of the dead worlds had its own share of technology and research. I proposed that instead of running all those terrible experiments on innocent victims he should instead search for the answer to humanity's well being in the collected knowledge of the dead worlds. I know for a fact my own world alone could provide a lifetime worth of information.
There is of course a catch. The only way to get access to that information is to nurture the seeds of the dead worlds so they have access to the higher layers of reality. In other words, put people through the Retrospec program.
[ He holds up a book. ]
This is a book from my other world. I intend to give it to Vanderweele and the other founders as proof that the seeds can bring back information.
Consent has been a concern I've had since I first joined the network. I've witnessed people grow and gain happiness from their experience but I have also seen people suffer greatly. That's why I specifically told him that they should seek out Seeds who would volunteer to regain their old memories and bodies. People like Wendy, who would be willing to join the cause to stop unreality.
Vanderweele told me he will seriously reconsider his research approach if we provide proof that there are Seeds who would volunteer. So I'm asking who here would be willing to add their name to that list?
And yes, I realize Vanderweele is not that trustworthy but he wasn't lying when he said he'd reconsider. I think he fears for the future of the human race and providing an alternative path will at least spare a few lives. If we can get all the Founders to agree on a company policy and direction that takes Seeds' consent into mind we have a chance to get Retrospec to see us as people from the beginning instead of test subjects.
Please respond as soon as possible. I realize time travel will allow me to return the results the next second after I left but the more we wait in the present the more risk there is something will interfere.

no subject
[ What does that mean? ]
Consent rules. No forcing seeds through the program, they should be told what it is upfront and allowed to leave, especially if they undergo changes that threaten their well being.
Transparency. No more vague unhelpful posts and watching from afar. They wouldn't have to worry about us attempting to kick down the door to HQ if they gave us answers and treated us with respect.
That also means transparency about any tests or procedures they want to run on us for their studies. I'm not against medical tests, some people may need benefit from that if their body is changing, but shutting down the type of tests Dr. Halliday performed was exactly why I told Vanderweele there are seeds who would cooperate.
That's some off the top of my head.
