I didn't want the sysop who let me in to be sorry he did so. Besides, I was engrossed in my models.

When I got my own 11, I wrote a game for it:

https://github.com/DigitalMars/Empire-for-PDP-11

> I recognize your user name

Is that 11 still in operation? Wow! DEC sure makes a tank for a computer!

I'm not on that machine, I meant that I did recognize your name from the Empire game. DEC sure made tanks, but I doubt that particular tank is still treading.

Have a great week!
