The absence of logs means that compiling the multi-volume "Why The World Would Be A Better Place If People Were More Like Me": The Letters and Papers of [Sigaba] is going to be difficult for the enterprising team of editors and research assistants. (That reminds me, I have to make sure I erase my "List of Five Great Ideas for the First Decade of the Twenty-First Century." It seems that pork rinds are not going to replace croutons anytime soon.  )

And here's another problem with the chat thing.
Everyone here ought to know what SA is. As in "check your SA!"
Do we really want replies of "F/18. U?"

True, we wouldn't want that... any "F/18"s should be directed to PM a single POC...
I volunteer.

One of your "brothers" who wished to remain anonymous, sent it to me, he said he snapped it when ya"ll where deployed. He said you were participating in a local ritual while trying to win the hearts and minds of a local tribe of fairies, I mean natives.
