As a rule of thumb, if you don't see it in the show, it's not commonly available. That said, there are some particularly clever individuals who have technology above and beyond the normal such as, say, a robot duplicate (Sweetie Bot!). It wouldn't be odd for Cheese to have something like that, being rich and all, although for now I'm going to have to limit you to one such item to be preapproved by me.

That said, no telephones/graphs. Most places have a unicorn who can send scrolls, so there was really never much of a need for them.

Ok, thats fine. If I were looking for such a unicorn, would I typically find them in the local post office?

OOC:Sorry, that was a bit of jerk move. Appkes and Demonu, if you want we can swing back later on and you can rejoin.

Basically the idea I had was this.
These are mushrooms are obviously an unknown species.
They are possibly hazardous to pony health
They can live on organic and inorganic matter.

Since this is a new species of mushroom, its possible they might be edible, or have magical properties, in which case they could be cultivated, and might serve as an additional export for Dodge Junction, thus increasing the town's economy.

Now I was thinking that possibly Zebulon could perform an analysis on the mushroom, otherwise I could probably ask that a fungi expert be sent out.

Go ahead and edit that into the post if you want, assuming you haven't done that already.

Ditzy's staying at the Roach Motel, not the Mareiot, and Zeb only knows she's in town, not where she's staying. Ditzy breaking his wall is a reasonable conclusion, but not one that can be reached with that logic.
