If it's an illegal page, visitors are for sure looking for "forbidden" things :P

Anyways, we're getting off-topic. My point was that I didn't find the phrase on Google apart from the wikis and... that page... and I find it unlikely that it was from a book.

Well... nevermind. I think that it isn't connected to man plot, because then it would be more then just one note. I think that it is just one of the popular motives in books/movies/games, and I don't thrust it.

I don't understand why you don't trust it. Let's take an example: The "sociopath" note was made, most likely, by an explorer who lost hope with Mur. He (or she) was merely stating an opinion, it wasn't fact.

For someone to come up with the idea (and write it in a note) that the computer answered "Why are we?", it had to happen. Unless it happened in one Layer under the whole idea that:
Murtaugh: ...you change direction.

Liz: Direction of what?
At any rate:
What is Submachine?
Options:
1. Submachine = Subnet
2. Submachine = Any single location in Subnet
3. Submachine = Single Subnet in single layer
4. Submachine = Everything, in every layer
5. Something else
you mean the word "submachine"?
it's an abbreviation of "submerged machine", because at the time of discovery there was a popular belief that all structures were below the ground (the darkness and all).
besides, the name "submachine" was given by the original creator of the first submachine in early 20th century as we know, and there are two options:

- he named that after what he has seen, and surely he didnt see it all. maybe he has seen only submerged parts of the structure, hence the name.

- he named it after what he desired to built (underground structure), but we know that submachine got out of hands and started spreading by itself. to no limit.

Wait, a few pages back (pg 6): where did the quadrant come from (I don't recall that word being mentioned anywhere– was it in sub6?)?

This word isn't from Submachine. I added this word to extend Submachine universe.
Sounds good: seven Layers = 1 quadrant.

Thank you for clearing that up for me.

And that was all part of his thought that there's going to be more expansions upon expansions of the "Sectors" and "Sections" we learned about, i.e.

You'd think this submachine is a phenomenon witnessed during ancient times,probably by post-roman Britain,who thought the ancient roman structures were made by giants,and mistakenly classified the submachine(NOT made by romans)as one of them.
And then historians at (much) later times thought the submachine was a myth.
And then someone found out it was real.
Is this my final form?

And so new theories arise...
Oh wait,I think there is already an Atlantis theory that was debunked.
