Hello and welcome,
This list can suck you in to the point where you cannot cope with the number
of e-mails, and can get you hooked on (expensive) ideas that you hadn't
even dreamed of. On the down side... there isn't on Wahey!
There are experts on this list in so many fields its scary, we had a long and
very informed discusion about AFV internal fire fighting equipment, and even
my (sparse) knowledge of industrail chemical engineering came in handy... so
if you have obscure knowledge we will be forever greatful and if
you want it... we probably got it :-)
Enjoy our inane ramblings,

well, my amazing obscure skill: I can name 5 different types of FTL drive (and
the pricipals behind them) as well as being a general anime and
sci-fi
maniac. I also have a bit of a fascination for power armor and big mecha..
oh, and it was a bit of a shock when I checked my mail after about 2 days, and
outlook came up with "downloading message 2 of 83".

his cue, falls on the set, stands out of the light, says the wrong line and
trips into the new scrim. And we think 'what a wonderful show except for the
goddamn actor.'"

Yeah, it *has* been a bit slow. Hopefully things will pick back up
I found out...once a couple of years ago, I lost my connection for a
month...when I came back, I found out my ISP had actually saved my
messages...ALL 800 or so...All from this list. These peaple message
alot...Feel free to join in on the fun..
(BTW, you might want to use a filter in your emailer to sort your list
messages into a convienent folder.)
