Ah sorry, I just wanted to make you do a double-take and then laugh at my foolish fantasy. I guess my post was a bit too convincing ...

Otherwise, all was quiet. Only sound to be heard was the mindworms rustling their way through the fungus to my bases

Not a problem Mis - I guess it just didn't click when it really should have done. I hadn't considered it beyond the realms of possibility that you were that far up the tech tree, anyway....

Anyway - fingers crossed on the Vee-Dubya

We will be issuing a very serious law suit if you make it ... the Misotu VW (c) is very precious to us

Aaargh. I think I got my years confused - had to reboot my PC, and then had trouble saving the game

At this stage in the game, the power chart is pretty much meaningless. Since I play second, I'm going to be hailed as leader in every measure where we are equal if Tau's observations are correct (and I suspect they are. It's certainly true on pop). I think we are pretty much neck-and-neck in fact ...

Managed to sneak an extra turn in before going out for dinner (ever noticed how long it takes men to "shower"? I reckon it's all that primping in front of the mirror. Combing nasal/aural hair, rearranging the bald bits, that kind of thing )
