as for feeling honoured, well, you may be somewhat exagerrating the importance of my personal interest, but if it makes you happy you go right ahead !

I'm not sure about the big white chronophage (it's probably dollarphagous, too) but I certainly like your crew, pshwynkies.

Funny you should equate Okka and Bruce......

To paraphrase and mutilate a line from "Alien Ressurection".... A lot of things (make me happy these days)... I'm not entirly sure they should....

As to the Boat, with that magificent crew, I'm thinking something like "The Explorer" is kinda apt.... Love the book.....
