    Contingency plans

    Thanks for the offer EQnoble: you live up to your username. We are fortunate not to be a poor community, so raising the cash should not be a problem (we raised the cash for vB4 in a matter of hours). It just sticks in my throat to have to give it to IB. The more time I spend here, playing...

    Contingency plans
