Oi! I can't keep pulling this bleedin' thing back from the brink of page 2 infamy all the time, you know. What's with the war?
I think they retired or somethin'.
I heard they are playing both sides now. Must be Milo's influence ...[:D]

Rumor has it that computer troubles are to blame for silence, somebody no doubt mixed up the colors on all six sides of the fourth rotor...

Maybe a neighbor vomited all over his computer after pouring her soul out to the Capt. over a few Sticky Greens, rendering the computer hors de combat. It's happened before to his couch.
Do you think the Capt. is torturing himself over all of the missed opportunities for pithy comments?

No. I'm sure he and Rord Sprior are busy trying to work out the intricacies of Japanese Jackspeak.

Forget about March. Beware the Ides of April.
Every year about this time my thoughts turn to murder. Not just your ordinary natural murder either...murder most foul...and unnatural too.
I think it must have something to do with the tides or maybe pollen. It's like clockwork. It's not the HOA either, as far as I can tell.

Have you contacted Erik Rutkins directly? He has responded quickly to requests in the past. You might mention that we are waiting for a turn.

Taxes?
Hory crap! That's it! What do I owe you for the therapy session?
Oh wait....I don't really feel any better after this breakthrough. In fact, I think I might be getting worse.
There are times when I think the IRS wouldn't have ANY customers if it weren't for the threat of incarceration. At least I can take solace in the fact that the money is being well used.

This is why I always buy the version with a disc. Once I misplaced my disk to WITP. My wife still recalls the tantrums! Luckily I found it in the last place I looked. Funny how that works every time.

When you finally get your DL, save the load module to your backup disk (you do have a backup disk don't you [;)]). Then if it happens again or the program just gets buggered you can reload from scratch without having to deal with Matrix.

You might consider pulling your Devastators from a CV or two and replacing them with a squadron of Marine fighters. Survivabilty is the key early in the game as the Allies.
Naval search - you migth want some overlap on your search arcs with multiple squadrons doing the search. Expecting 1 PBY to find every ship in their 10 degress of search is asking a lot. Knowing the coders sense of humor, the critical arc will be covered by the pilot with the least amount of experience in the squadron and miss the enemy fleet. [:D]
You don't need to off load the Devastators to have room for a Marine fighter squadron. The CVs all start under capacity with the 27 count fighter squadrons. You can fit an 18 count Marine squadron on them, be slightly over capacity, but not enough to curtail flight ops and wait until the CV fighter squadrons resize to 36 before having to make any adjustments.

They'd look about the same, just side by side? [:'(]
