-[[Ugh. You of course realize what happens if your CFI is judged TRUE? Bad 
things, that's what... for one thing, we'll have to name our points. For 
reference, I am now naming all of my points:]]

I herebhy name allamy pointsh. They getsh the namesh "BvS Point n," where n 
ish th numbher of the point. Sho at the moment I have BvS Points 1-377.

Then, I namesh my Airshpeeder "Squid."

I don't name my shtupid Hangover in the hopesh it'll go away... shame for my 
Entropy.

I name allamy other "positive" dimenshion pointsh "BvS's nth XXXX point," 
where XXXX is the dimenshion and n ish the number- BvS's 1st-16th Charm 
pointsh, forazample.

I name alla pointsh in the Gnome Account "GA Point n" where n ish the number 
of the point.

[[There, that's all I can do. Sorry, Dave.]]

                                                  [[BvS]]
