What Knickerbockers are? Let's see pants, beer, it was a game similar to baseball once upon a time. There's a Knickerbocker shipping company i believe, there's also a Knickerbocker mansion in upstate NY not too close to me though. I'm certain there are other things that have the name, but i can't think of anything else right now.

I only know 'em as trousers. It is great to have a name which is not too common. For my last name, there are only about 80 entries in german phonebooks, and the name is of german linguistic origin. Worldwide, I assume that there are not more than 500 persons having my last name. Combined with my first name, it is unique.

The only "famous" guy I ever found is a US football player from about 1950.

I've noticed that a lot of people have downloaded the fireblade right now. I still couldn't put it into the ship dealer... Anyone an idea, or did anyone have it for sale post-palan?

I've found with ships I've added (including your excellent Fireblade), it depends on where in master_part_list.csv you put the entry. It must put BEFORE the turrets, and then it appears in the ship dealer. Same goes for adding weapons.

Don't worry about that. Amarica has done worse, so has Australia, and nearly every other country.

About the non-participation of iraq, be happy your troops are not there.

What he said is absolutely correct. I heard the top two names for the war were "operation screw the economy" and "operation not for the oil".

Bzandon, I tried your suggestion and it works fine. Again, thank you! I'm considering to launch a PU-Special Edition for myself, since I found a way to "compress" it way better by saving files which are already within the stock PR install.
