I'm not easily offended at all nor do I usually assume the other person is trying to imply something negative. That's just not my natural way of looking at things.I just wanted everyone to know that every now and again I'll be so busy with work or other matters I won't have time to participate in threads, even my own, the way I might like to. This is kinda relaxing and recreational to me, it allows me to "get away" from work, cases, family and church affairs, and other matters, and sort of relax a bit. I do appreciate the interest though.By the way, while you made me think of it, if you, or anyone else has some question about some aspect of the setting, or some part of the setting or how I've constructed the game you wish me to write or talk about, then feel free to suggest what you wanna hear about.I'd be happy to let you or the other readers hear about anything they want to hear about, so it's more interesting to them.See ya.P.S.: Yeah, my daughter, who just became a teenager is entering the same Civil Air Patrol squadron I was in as a kid. It's a much bigger and better squadron now. Far less drill, back then we were directly associated with the Air Force, but now it's a lot looser and more academic and science oriented. Back then it was sorta like ROTC training for the Air Force, or pre-Air Force for kids. Still heavy Air Force in some ways though. (My old man had been Army Air Corp.)Yeah they still drill and test and have to physically qualify to earn rank, but it's a lot looser now and they build hovercars, and conduct aerospace projects (back in my day I ranked mostly in Civil Defense and space program projects), and cyber-warfare, and scientific experiments and so forth. I hope that like me she'll get involved with NASA. They also do a lot of SAR work, which I did too, and next to Civil Defense and flying was my favorite thing. They'll also do Disaster Relief (the new Civil Defense), and I hope to help instruct them in counter-terrorism training. The other day I actually found my old radiological training instruction manual form one of my CD courses and my old commander found some of our old Geiger Counters. They're antiques now. Back in my day we only had a couple of girl cadets. Now they're quite a few of them. One of em even took a national merit award. I think she'll like it. It'll teach her a lot about discipline and self-discipline.</blockquote>
