Seems someone has attacked our website (or IP Address) with so much data it shut us and the entire New Orleans Datacenter down. So, they had to block all traffic here to trace the cause.
Sorry for the temporary blockage.

I have it on completely unreliable, unverifiable and for the most part just made up that it was the N20 fleet.

I bet it was just Wouter uploading masses of scientific data to support the superiority of the F16 class over every other conceivable format... Now, due to the ridiculously limited capacity of this cr4ppy data center all this irreplaceable data is lost to the world forever!!!
OTOH, maybe it was the PWC's getting revenge for the exocet you-tube movie that was posted here before...

What about the foilers?
They are an arrogant bunch, looking down at us from their little flying boats.

You have it all wrong.

It wasn't Elves.

It was Gnomes.
