I've emailed about this on the list, and I've even sent a copy to Gruffle since he was taken off the list before I could respond. I just want to be super clear on this:
I was never upset with anyone, least of all Gruffle, over any point of canon or non-canon. If I am ever upset with someone, I will tell you to your face. I won't hide behind passive-aggressive insulting posts, I promise.
The post about the power plant explosive potential was not meant to be, in any way, insulting. In hindsight of course, I read it and slap my forehead. At the time I wrote it, I thought it was just an amusing look into Zoe's head. The problem of course was that I thought I knew what was going on, when in fact Leif had told someone else something totally different. Perfectly understandable, since he's the GM and my character's not an engineer...but I made a mistake, and let what I thought I knew (based on this being a Traveller game) interfere with what my character knew. In fairness to me, I had no reason at the time to think there'd be other kinds of ship reactors...and it doesn't seem completely OOC for Zoe to have some idea of the technology that powers starships...but those are small asides to a relatively large mistake on my part, and I claim full responsibility. At the very least, I could have asked.
So, to Gruffle, and to everyone else for putting you through the drama, I offer my sincere apology.
