Yeah, that's the thing right there. All the points you made Danny were
excellent, but on reading the original post in this thread, my very
first thought was "oh, fun, a scavenger hunt. These are pretty good
descriptions if I were only in the space right now I bet I could collect
the whole set."

Admittedly, I am, as you have pointed out, an evil person, but I really
doubt I am the only person who was thinking that, just the only one who
is likely to be handicapped by having a two day lag by not being in the
space until Monday.
