i thought of people being used as servers, but where is col created..... imagine internet.... any computer can acces games on fb, like farmville, but somewhere there was a computer that created farmville..... or maybe some online games, like WoW, you need a username and that is stored somewhere so you know you can acces that...... so taking that into consideration, it would only, if even, possible to be in a every man for himself kindfa situation, meaning noone could support another after they are gone.... so: I'm answering this seperately because it's gonna take some explaining. :) I'm not sure how much more in depth I can get without going full-on geek mode and confusing people so I'll leave it at the basics.

1. Computers are simply interfaces that allow you to input and store data and sometimes to communicate with other connected devices. Anything can be turned into a computer of sorts and they can be any size (i.e. nanotechnology), shape (i.e. a chip or a human), or material (i.e. crystals).

2. A server is a powerful machine but two servers are better than one. When you have more than one server, it can be used in a few ways from redundancy to load-balancing to synching. Instead of using hardware for her servers, ALIE is using peopleware (see: Matrix, The).

3. Communication: you don't need login IDs or profiles or anything special like that. All you need is a way for the servers to communicate with each other and relay information and data, which is what the CoL provides.

Translation: humans are being used as servers and are being linked together through the City of Light, which is like a giant virtual reality of the Internet. Instead of opening your browser and typing a web address in, you open your mind and visit the City of Light.
