'Twas the night before 04-Oct-98, and all through the net,
 not a creature was stirring, except for Myrla, who whispered ominously:

And they didn't get any ice cream either...
Dates going dead on one - happens to the best of us... <g>

>The ship, The Skidbladnir III, is a space ship Tigra was working on,

I got a bit curious about the number. The original Skibladne or Skidbladne
was a ship from Norse nythology, and Skibladner is an old paddle steamer
that still sails on the Mjøsa (largest inland lake in Norway). Being built
in 1856, this makes it probably the world's oldest steamship in regular
traffic. So if someone built another ship (be it real or virtual) by the
same or a similar name it would indeed (afaik) be number three.

And you thought mucking wasn't educational? ;)

Talking of space ships, I have started building one for SFOXS ut have only
desced the exterior and made some interior rooms so far. Tried setting up
one of the drive programs this morning but couldn't get it to work so I
tried the other with the same result. Anyone know how to make vehicles
work?? And for that matter, would any of the creative menbers of our crew
(I have seen your rooms so I know you're creative...) like to lend a paw
with the interior? I've sort of run out of ideas after doing the outside,
and I'm trying to be creative somewhere else too...
