I go to the vault of the book, or *that* room or whatever.  I go home.

Oh, by the way, P4180 is stupid and pointless and silly and harfy and all
that.

If i am not wearing it, i don my champion's cloak.

Alas, my Hive Palace became a total mess while I was gone, me not being
here to tend the Rules Wasps which you may remember are constantly
rebuilding it.  Now, I was wondering around it, trimming off various
chimneys and extra rooms, when I discovered Phoebe herself helping me. 

"Come, what do you think of our proposed war against the Canadians?" spake I.

Instantly, she quothed back at me, "Well, its about time!  Exactly  when
were you Ackans were going to get off your butts and deal with the
perfidious Canadians.... Now I'm not so worried, though."

"Terrified are some who consider this war.  It is their overpowering might
we should rightly fear.  Using a budget and currency recogized by nomics
far and wide the Canadians have procurred actual weapons....  Many also
worry over their vaunted spy network!!!"

Forwith, Phoebe slapped me across the face, saying "Get a hold of yourself,
man!"

"Ouch... Thanks" I smiled ruefully.

"Really though, if you think that Alfvaen was a spy for the Canadians then
think again...  Yes, even I have a special place in my heart for the dear
Alfvaen, especially since I know that in fact, he was an ACKAN spy working
deep under cover in Canada."

Over this I objected, spaking: "But what about money and guns?"

"Underestimation of Acka will get you no where. Can Acka not get credit
cards?  And surely using internet services some threat can be leveled
against the dread Canadians....   And you forget the most important
advatage Acka has: It may only be affected after giving its rule sanctioned
permission."

"Great Phoebe, will you lead us in this battle?"

Phoebe hunched over and, after checking over her flea-shoulder whispered,
"No, I'm to busy working on a secret weapon: The H-Bomb."

"What is that?  Does it work on Hydrogen, Helium?"

"Harfium."

And with that she was gone.

We have acquired  yet another new observer.  Johnathan Howard
<[email-masked]> has asked to be allowed to observe.  One 
of the comments he made in the mail to me that he was suprised at hoe complex
it was.
