amgreene (Andrew Marc Greene):
When the buds are blossoming,
Smiling welcome to the spring,
Lovers choose a wedding day.
Life is love in merry May!
Spring is green, Summer's rose.
(It is sad when Summer goes.)
Autumn's gold, Winter's grey.
(Winter still is far away.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
celine (Robert Fullmer):
If all be true that I do think,
There be Five Reasons why one should Drink;
Good friends, good wine, or being dry,
Or lest we should be by-and-by,
Or any other reason why.

Dr. Basil Jackson, Computer Tech
Dr. Travis ``Cysteine'' Boyington, Medic, Psychiatrist, Strike Force
Second-in-Command

The Plan:
To wander the universe, collecting gold and jewels and leaving behind
little Dracosian embryos, and eventually bother FISH enough that they'll
leave Dracosia and I can settle down and have fun. Of course, this has
to wait until we can punt this dingy backwater world in favor of some
civilized climes.

henry (Henry Mensch):
"We've known for a long time that the Soviets were a military
superpower but not an economic one. I wonder if we are as aware of how
