hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never really care for anything else
thereafter. ~ Ernest Hemmingway

While a disaster for world commerce, there is a bright side for the GZGverse.
As some of you remember, I've been attempting to calculate fixed and variable
costs for a shipping line, then recalculate versions appropriate to space
shipping. This is surprisingly complicated because the major freight companies
work hard to conceal
their true variable costs-- but with a huge decline in volume, I'll
finally have enough dispersion to be able to get an estimate out when the
annual reports are released.
