E.L.E. might refer to:

Extinction Level Event.

European Lunar Explorer.

So CIG should have a garage sale. I bet all that stupid Restoration Hardware furniture would sell quickly in Santa Monica. They could also start selling their three sets of mo-cap cameras, as well as various Star Citizen memorabilia they have sitting around.

That should buy them another month or two, right?

This. I predicted this in my blog several months ago.

However what you missed is who will be buying this stuff at dirt cheap prices.

I'll give you a hint: it will be some company Roberts has affiliation with.

It's been in progress for the past two weeks. This week has been particularly interesting. And tomorrow even more so here in the US.

Lots of crazy stuff also going on in the UK that I can't talk about. Yet. Maybe EightAce may think it's safe to post about that, but I hinted at some of it this morning, without elaborating.

I'm trying very hard not to tip our hand, or compromise sources, but seriously, EVERYONE is talking. And the more they try to clamp down on that, the worse it gets because then people just get paranoid and start asking questions, whispering etc.

Hey, fair enough, Derek. We're just the gawkdogs, anyway. Definitely not worth spoiling anything for our sake -- we kill our own half the time anyway.

Whatever happens or doesn't we've got no shortage of ways to amuse ourselves. After all, there's "Around the Verse" to parse tomorrow and "Reverse the Verse" to take apart Friday and always a few surprises every week, to boot.

I have figured it out. I have cracked the code.

The reason you hate Chris so much is because he is exactly like you. You are both egotistical without merit, confident without backing, and too happy to believe in the bullshit you spew. You are both two of the biggest man babies the world has ever known.
