-So call a vote of No Confidence and run.-

-Then... well, then their money is next to worthless, isn't it? Actually, 
I've been thinking about this. In the happy afterglow of a post-win reset, 
we have no points here, but according to that little formula, our points are 
still only worth 1S. Maybe the commission should set exchange rates based on 
actual holdings?-

-So it'll be rewritten. (By the way, I'm referring to Friday when I say I'll

-Nomanon. The Nomsaw Pact. The Commonwealth of Independent Nomics. The 
United Federation of Nomics. The Organization of Purchaseable-item Exporting 
Nomics...-
