OK, have been reading the archives.  Very interested
in the whole India thing, looking forward to seeing
the force compositions for SG II and DSII, as well as
FT designs.

Also, regarding the unfortunate freighter accident.

The NRE issued the following English translation of a
statement.

"The Government of the Empire of the Romans expresses
the deepest sympathies to the families of the deceased
in this horrible accident.  Additionally, all Alarishi
starships in Roman space are required to update their
safety inspections and liability insurance, effective
immediately."

Astute scholars of the Greek language note that the
original statement would be more literally translated,
"You idiot barbarians!	Insert some meaningless
sympathy here.	And we're going to give all you
savages hell on your next customs inspections, so you
better have your paperwork straight."

Additionally, informed sources in the Empire note that
this incident could not have come at a better time for
the Imperial Customs Service, currently locked in a
budgetary dispute with the Imperial Navy.

On a personal note, I should be back late March.
