LOL! What do you bet that their mailing lists are going through the same thing ours did
during the Decipher buyout rumors? I doubt they have a Dvixen there to stop the stampeding
panic of the rumor-mongering masses. I do feel sorry for all the D&D fanatics.

Yep, I do have to admit, though I don't always agree with the actions of
GridSec (and their superiors ;-), I do enjoy the fact they are here and they
do try their damndest.

Thanks Keith, I know you realized pretty clearly who's controlling some
GridSec officials.

(Now, if I only had the same power to persuading her in letting me buy a
subnotebook...)

Actually Paolo, I *wasn't* thinking about you, but if you want delude
yourself into thinking you have *THAT* kind of control over Dvixen ...
please, by all means continue ... Me? I'm gonna get the popcorn and watch
the fireworks from where I sit. I'm only a few thousand miles away, they
*should* be visible from here... ;-P

;) And of course, there is always the tale about knowing how old you are in
comparison to the dirt around you... ;-P
