The aptly named mistress of Ikebukuro, Sunshine, grows uneasy over the turn the weather has taken since the Child's removal. While I'm more interested in sunsets than sunrises, I do of course realize they are two sides of the same coin--a coin that has at least temporarily lost some of its luster.
And godgiver - I don't think Machines just delete programs straight away, they probably spend a while assesing them etc. - plus they also need to create replacement programs for the new/adapted role so sunshine would have still been around while they made new programs to get enrgy from their new source and then created the Matrix, giving her opportunity to escape once it had been set up. Also back then the Machines had only just managed to secure victory, before then they were a nation under threat of war and deleting their own programs wasn't high on the agenda - it wasn't until they had set themselves up as lords of the earth that they could begin deciding which of their loyal servants they didn't need anymore!
That's a lot of torches... all the better to see in the dark with I suppose.
The General does desire to tear down the Matrix. With the accumulated greenness left over from the Unlimits and unknown effects of Sati's removal from the Matrix... it may not cause an immense problem for exiles and redpills. Bluepills on the otherhand might start rejecting things if it all get's too weird. And like the row of dominoes mentioned I guess a large rejection of the simulation couls start a cascade effect that causes more weird side effects, causing more rejections until there is too little power to support the Simulation.
Things could go pearshaped rather quickly.
Also... what is with names like qqqq1 being allowed? (qqq = 4 q = rude phrase)

(( It's awsome to see new event people emerging from the woodwork, exiles etc: and finding out their background or purpose. Very cool event, and it definately raise's a few eyebrows )) Get your thinking caps on, operatvies. We have some work ahead of us. Efficiently Pilot
