SVC please see email sent. The interceptors and PFs are all done, so are the R9 SSDs but I have a few questions before I send them.

MONDAY 11 MAY
I spent most of today at the doctor, having two skin cancers (#24, #25) cut out of my neck and shoulder. The doctor also froze a half dozen tiny ones with nitrogen. The doctor is a personal friend and fellow coin collector. I took my collection of biblical coins (widow's mite, Judas shekel, Tiberian penny) to show him what artistry was done 2000 years ago. I also showed him my oldest coin (a Lydian bronze that is 2700 years old) and my favorite (a Greek tetradracha that is 2200 years old) and some Egyptian, Syrian, and Roman coins from 2400BC-200AD.

EVERYBODY READ THIS: A few times in the past few decades, someone has circulated "a document" of one type or another and said "this is SVC approved." Sometimes it was, sometimes it was not. If you are ever given such a document and told I approved it, ASK ME before basing any decision or action on that status. You especially want to ASK ME if the information with the document is some kind of secret which is not to be discussed on line. You absolutely want to ASK ME if someone says "SVC approved this but do not email him about it." This is just to prevent confusion. I'm not angry or upset with anyone about anything but something got passed around recently that someone "assumed" had been approved by me. No end of people create a circulate no end of things and when someone asks "Did SVC approve this?" the person answering the question might not actually know the correct answer. I do.

If I had a dollar for every version of a "SVC-approved Battlestar Galactica SSD" I've ever seen...
...well, OK, I could get a burger and fries. But still, yeah.

I would actually like to see that Battlestar Galactica card!
Or better, Firefly!

Here's one of them, Steve, from a dozen years ago or so.

I prefer to assume that NONE of them are.
If something is SVC approved, it'll be here, on the ADB, Inc. Website.
If I ever manage to create an SSD (or anything else that's SFU related) that's SVC approved, I'd ask that it be posted here (or published in a Captain's Log).

SVC, I emailed you a revised manuscript for the Captain's Log fiction piece on 5/25, hopefully addressing your comments. Figured I'd like you to know here to make sure it didn't get buried in your inbox.

I will check for it. Yes, it's here, I've just been busy with other things.
