Call me a sentimentalist, but I miss Elvis. I thought it rather funny that he was in the CIV games, but I have yet to see him in AC. Has anyone else had an elvis sighting?

Hi Jarke,
Here is a little something I posted a long time ago in the pre-crash forum. IIRC the thread had to do with finding an appropriate name for the planet. I hope you like it.
"Meanwhile, back on the ship: Ensign Holloway hurried down the corridor of the doomed U.N.S. Unity with an urgent hand written note from Captain Garland for Dr. Lal. The bulkheads were showing the strain from the abrupt deceleration. The Engineering assistants seemed to be everywhere in their color-coded jumpsuits; red for propulsion, green for hydroponics, blue for cryosystems.
What she saw next brought her to a standstill! Who was that guy in the white rhinestone studded jumpsuit with the definitely non-regulation hair cut? As Ensign Holloway stared, the vaguely familiar figure walked toward her. Who was he? Is he one of the stowaways? Is he dangerous? She just about to take him down and restrain him when he said, "Howdy ma'am. Could you tell me when we'll get to Graceland?"
The rest is history".
