Just noting, while I'm in here while looking for something else, that at a PC of 48543, I'm slightly over two and a half milestone announcements behind...

Is 48543 supposed to be a "stardate" or something?

It's supposed to be my PC as I typed the post, having missed doing the PC gloating announcement joke since 46,000.

It took me a minute to figure what this was about.  I started out thinking perhaps it was a Politically Correct thread.  Then maybe thought it had to do with building personal computers.  Then with the numerology, I'm enough of a geek to think it was about a Program Counter.  How was this site implementing a Program Counter for one's actions?  And if one looped back to a previous place in the program, where would that take you?  Where was it taking BU ?  Was he repeating himself?

But, alas.  Post Count.

Yeah, I'm afraid that as a troublesome newb at WPC I made a joke thread -my first day- about PC rank that caught on, and here I am as the responsible owner keeping it alive 16 years later.  NObody ever tried to claim the joke isn't dumb; that's part of the joke.

We estimate the during the next mission century most of Planet's industries will be moved off-planet to Nessus Prime and other orbital facilities.
