Why was it decided to create a separate service for the Scout Corps? Surely the Navy pushed for keeping those duties within their own control rather than branched out.

I was wondering when the aircraft image posting contest would next rear its ugly head.

Light the torches and man the walls, my friends, the enemy is upon us.

You're telling me, man.

It's good you're still around, Cas. Us lifers gotta keep the old ways alive.

Should be seeing Talon soon! Looking forward to meeting a new character.

Plus, I think it might be time to adopt a new Loroi. Although, considering what happened last time, with Nova, it might not be such a good idea...

To say so otherwise is not fair to the artist ( and the fans, because many are still here on the forum form when I first joined in 07).

Hear, hear!

Show respect. The wisdom of ages past resides within this shell, and I have seen much that has been forgotten.

Indeed, sir. One just doesn't know how to deal with the young these days. Violence reigns supreme in the minds of our children.

May the Emperor guide their troubled hearts.

*Sniff* How provincial.

Yes, yes. "Praise the Emperor," and all that rot.

Yeah. And y'all better stay off the lawn, too.

Ah, too bad. Still a neat inclusion, though.

I didn't realize that was the original voice actress -- that's really cute.

(The first Homeworld was better, anyway.)

I think the lack of diversity in Star War's Empire and in the Klingon and Romulan empires is meant to be an demonstration that these entities are inherently evil. Or at least inflexible and stagnant. Especially in the case of Star Trek, I don't think that either the Klingons or Romulans were protra...

The Nedatan has specialists with eidetic memories that fill the same kind of role as the Listel; in this case, of accurately remembering the telepathic litanies. The male Farseers look within rather than without, monitoring the local population rather than tracking distant ones. The Loroi philosoph...

I don't know. I think there's a sort of "folk psychology" which prevails in (at least) European thought that separates the body from the mind, and which sees the body as dirty and often more than a little shameful. This has a long tradition which probably goes back at least to the Greeks, but is cer...

Similarly, Loroi don't have proverbs. Sending is pretty immediate and specific, and usually doesn't deal in abstractions, so Loroi philosophy is generally not expressed in sayings. The Loroi find Alex's aphorisms unusual and entertaining. Would the Loroi philosopher caste preserve the teachings of ...

God, Beryl is so adorable.

"Reed, we should avoid panicking, but I pressed that big red button over there, and something is beeping very loud. I'm rather frightened, and could use a hug."

EDIT: And the response:
"Of course, Captain Jardin. Hugs all around."

...and I think we have a winner.
