@kev_hatch @NERV2nd @Prof_Quiteamess USN is *nothing* unless you're 45 days straight underway and you get two beers. Period. Wait another 45 days for two more.

@thatgeekycanuck @MisterSonnySays @MichaelShanks A "new modern audience" would be better served with a new set of adventures aimed at them instead of twisting older ones into pretzels no one can recognize.

@exjon I didn't make a habit of watching 60 minutes after I was out on my own because it was on every Sunday of my youth. It meant the weekend was over and I had to go back to school tomorrow.

@SophiesNewWorld @NERV2nd @Prof_Quiteamess We forked the RN for sure, and many traditions continue in both. I've been told this specific one in particular is. I just hadn't had personal interaction to be certain is why I said I wasn't sure.
