I've never seen 40l of soup coloured with 3 tablets before...

On my way?!?!
How did you figure that stardate...is it a standard method for the KLI

If not, perhaps we should set a standard.

I've got that - from you I think, but its very complicated. I'm going to
give my friend a copy, he *is* a geek!
Am I right in thinking that youre from Holland???
Hmm, I just seem to remember someone being from there.
If you do live there, I thought you would be going all out, you know a real

At least, thats the image we all get of Holland here.
Anyway, your second home is Kronos, right!
