Welcome, Eugene, to this amazing place called Ackanomic. Beware the Orange
Menace.

I'm new here too, so perhaps we can figure it out together.

It is the vile forces that destroy all that is good and true.  or would,
if we didn't stop them!

He's the oldest active player, no one knows how long he's been a member
because we only ahve his word to go by.  I think that he made most of the
early history of Ackanomic up as a joke, and was suprised when people
actualy joined.

Cool, that means we can actually get started!  As I told the virus players,
my work load has been pretty disgusting recently.  If I had any sense, I
would have gone on vacation, but I didn't want to miss anything.  It's
morning now, so at lunch I'll post more on expedition stuff.

Well that's the real question, now isn't it? 

I haven't a clue. As I said, I'm new. I've just heard it said.

>How long have you been "here" ?

A week or two. It's a fine game.

Subject: Acka: Poem

As President I am requesting that the Poet Laureate write a poem.  Some of
the newer players may not know all the reasons why I should be re-elected
President, so I think it's only fair to let them know.  Therefore, I wish
breadbox to write a poem celebrating my greatness, all the neat things I
have done with the office of President, and before as a civilian.

If he wishes, he can throw in some other stuff, too.

Players of Ackanomic,

Sorry about this.  I actually thought about this while I was at college! 
:-(  If any of you really want to say Hi to me, you can write me at
[email-masked], but PLEASE don't send me any Ackanomic mail. 
Consider me dead.  Thank you.

Well said, well said!  If only your strong words were paralled by your
actions, Mr. Presdient, the Orange Menace would be a thing of the past.
