Well, if forces with a heritage linking back to North America had their own
supplement I don't think I'd call it "Yanks 'n' Thrust.";)

BTW... so far no one has said anything about this thread I started and so far
its been pretty clean. But if anyone on this list prefers innuendo be kept out
please say so ... either posting or by e-mail.

Thanks

Well, let's just say that down here my friend gets some funny looks when he
says he's playing Full Thrust today and then pulls out his Von Teggethoff
Superdreadnought!  ;-)

... and you should see the hits I got before I asked someone for the addreess

Tony: Yes, I'm told, (by my wife actually) that I take my name, WAY to
seriously.:)

John: Oh, yes I know what it means:) Having freinds on AOL and the net in
England, they take pains to insure I know what it means:)

... Not to mention, (but I will....) the fact that certian freinds of Scottish
descent will give me much greif at the drop of a hat for being a:..." Randy

Sorry. Mjr. Major M. Major was a character in Catch 22. Another character (I
think was named Tony, but I could be wrong; been a long time) had a
quartermastering racket going on, claiming that everyone had a share in the
business, so it was in their interest to help his business.... If you haven't
read Catch 22, I highly recommend it, but be forewarned, it is a

difficult read at first, trying to figure out what in the hell is going on....
Just remember that Time is not necessarily linear.....

That was Milo Minderbender. (and "quatermastering racket" doesn't begin to do
it justice)
