Hi,

A very fine review indeed - I especially liked the ending sentence :
"If you're looking for a PBEM patsy, contact Jim; he never wins."

Warning : don't click on the link below if you're commercial-o-phobic.

Warning : innocent electrons were needlessly slaughtered to bring you
this link.

Note to Wargamer staff : reg. the usual tarif for posting links : send
it to my secret Swiss bank account.

Greetz,

Dear Mr. Bernardo - this ng is just fun and games for me -
good-humoured poking and inside jokes are part of that. I'm truely
sorry you're taking all of this so serious. I'm sure no-one else does.

As an aside : my dog can out-manouvre me - I'm used to it.

Oh, so you did join the Comittee to Regulate Content on UseNet

Yes, but can it get me out of the lunatic asylum ?

Calvin : I'm being educated against my will! My rights are being
trampled!
Hobbes : Is it a right to remain ignorant?
Calvin : I don't know, but I refuse to find out!

<laughter!>

It's not that we're a "bunch of ultra-capitalists" at all. We aren't.
We're merely adults!

Nothing is as cool as Bugs "Ain't I a stinker" Bunny

Funny that the most appropriate BB quote has never been used in here :

"Of course you realize, this means war."
