It's a discussion list, not a pick my brain list.

We've had a newcomer on the TML recently.. who does nothing but ask questions. Endless questions. Never seems to want to discuss things, just pick our brains.

This annoys me. The Traveller Mailing List is a lot more than Traveller grognards hanging about behind desks with signs reading "Sage Advice .05 Credits" We're a community, and this guy isn't getting that.

Oh, and having At Close Quarters dismissed out of hand didn't help my opinion.

I learned an important little lesson this weekend.

Codeine, when taken by epileptics, has about the same effect as meth. I was using Kirsten's cough syrup, and then couldn't sleep. For two days.

Hmm.. Maybe I should go score some meth so I can sleep...

You have got to be kidding me.

A German couple who went to a fertility clinic after eight years of marriage have found out why they are still childless - they weren't having sex.

"A clinic spokesman said: 'When we asked them how often they had had sex, they looked blank, and said: 'What do you mean?'.

'"We are not talking retarded people here, but a couple who were brought up in a religious environment who were simply unaware, after eight years of marriage, of the physical requirements necessary to procreate.'"

No comment at all.
