Unanswered Questions from the Alice-verse
Schwungrad:
I think it means that even in the far future the Praesides will run their colonies by means of a German-engineered Enterprise Resource Planning software :-P
Kugai:
Much is to be explained
retrosteve:
Just want to point out (if it's not already obvious) that if the ruling off-world intelligences are trees (and possibly also the ruling on-world intelligences, we don't know that), then Alice Grove takes on a whole new meaning.
Alice Grove might not be the town at all. It might be the set of intelligent trees associated with her.
Given what we know of her so far, she predates the Praeses. So she might have made her own bunch, or there might be a group of Praeses devoted to keeping track of her shenanigans.
Or it might just be a name; she might have named her home or her town Alice Grove as a deliberate nose-thumbing at the Praeses.
Loki:
Maybe the Praeses are breaking down for some reason, having developed a neurological (or what counts for it) disorder.
In short, they are epileptic trees.
improvnerd:

- Rhythm method?
- Promotion of non-procreative sex acts?
- Occasional culls by Alice?
