I thought the topic was fairly clear...but anyway. Who GOT the free 500 points? Surely one doesn't have to be an Elite such as myself to get these points.
I got them. It wasnt an automatic thing based on length of membership, you had to complete a form a couple months back so I think everyone was elligible.
You wouldn't believe the things I've seen through your eyes...
"This is Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz of the Galactic Hyperspace Planning
Council," the voice continued. "As you will no doubt be aware, the
plans for development of the outlying regions of the Galaxy require
the building of a hyperspatial express route through your star system,
and regrettably your planet is one of those scheduled for demolition.
The process will take slightly less that two of your Earth minutes.
Thank you."
The PA died away.
Uncomprehending terror settled on the watching people of Earth. The
terror moved slowly through the gathered crowds as if they were iron
fillings on a sheet of board and a magnet was moving beneath them.
Panic sprouted again, desperate fleeing panic, but there was nowhere
to flee to.
Observing this, the Vogons turned on their PA again. It said:
"There's no point in acting all surprised about it. All the planning
charts and demolition orders have been on display in your local
planning department on Alpha Centauri for fifty of your Earth years,
so you've had plenty of time to lodge any formal complaint and it's
far too late to start making a fuss about it now."
fark I got the email and didnt deal with it now I can't find it in my inbox.. Perhaps it is in my archive at work though I was sure it would be in my hotmail.
Anyone still got the email and can tell me the subject heading so I can search for it in all this shit?
