Hi Everyone.

Thank you for the invite. I like the dark theme. BBS is still light for me so it’s a nice visual distinction.

Welcome, @katryn!

gave Brobdignag birth. Brobdignag was someone’s foolish triumph of femtoengineering. Simple, uniform, asentient, voracious—Brobdignag can transmute any element, harvest voidenergy, fabricate gravity, bend space-time to its purpose. Brobdignag does not evolve; its replication is flawless across a googol iterations. Brobdignag was no accident—someone made it
as a weapon, or a game.
All the worlds that someone knew—all the planets and stars
for a hundred light-years in every direction—are now within
the event horizon of a black hole. Around that black hole
seethes a vast cloud of tiny Brobdignag— the ultimate destructive machine, the death of all that is not precisely itself.
And Brobdignag spreads fast.[/quote]

It is Friday, there’s a new Lounge in town and I need to get my drink on. Sadly I’ve a few hours left until it is not a CLM to imbibe.
