Gentlemen, I am beginning to /believe/ that this little corner of the
internet is the nexus of different overlapping world realities. I
suspect we could not meet, even if we wanted to. A pity, as I would much
like to take you on one of our steam punk rocket visits through the
Dutch Continental Empire (DCE; I guess that some of you call that the
European Union? I am not sure) and especially to our new conquered
province of Engelland.

That would be nice. Then we could jaunt off in my interdimensional,
travelling pawn shop. You get to see some of the best parts. :-)

I'm glad someone's finally taking responsibility for them. They have
been a hell of a neighbour. Since the French took over. ;-)

That would certainly be nice. The interdimensionality though is still a
problem, except for words it seems.

Oh! Responsibility is a big word. We just put them to work to keep their
mind off trivial things.
