The elders may now forgive you for playing *again* with a PC program. I know you have bodyguards around the house but these elders are dangerous, I feared they might already be sent on their way asking you to pay heavy fines to WBF (World Blincoe Fund) to go to robot repairs..

No matter how strong, that is an attractive feature for a program at least to me. Eelco
