[the Duke]...well, if we stop zigzagging, we can add another six hours to our steaming time. Commander Burke, resume our base course.

[Burke, played by Carroll O'Conner, later known as Archie Bunker]But, that would be an open invitation to submarines.

[Kirk Douglas, later known as "the man who had no idea what his lines meant"]There might be enemy submarines out there, and then, there might not be.

[the Duke]Straighten us out, Commander.

What bed? (Where do you think the five inches of IJN cruiser armor came from? [:'(] )

I figger it's the "ooh, look, we will be able to list the ships that are eligible for upgrade" feature, but I didn't want to sound pejorative.

I'm holding back before I give 'im another five inches. The first five were pretty good for awhile, but it's getting a little old now.

But, seriously, folks, if this is all that can be improved in this game, isn't it time to move on?

Yes, it is time to move on.

However, there are a few User Interface improvments that I have long wanted (for myself) and they will continue to show up whenever I get a chance to slip one in (please, no more five-inch references).

If you think this one is too much, you are really going to hate a couple of other items in 1.8.0.2.

Haven't you got some more art you need to do?[:'(]

[Dixie]

Er, no...
