Because the delivery system for the steel-jacketed payloads, an immense Gauss gun, was normally used to deliver grain from the fertile lunar penal colony to feed Earth's teeming masses. Our "Simon Jester" is a fan, apparently, since his user-ID is a character from it. (A fictitious fictional character, even: An alias that thinking computer MYCROFT / "Mike" / "Adam Selene" invented for himself.) HTH! [link\|mailto:MyUserId@MyISP.CountryCode\|Christian R.

Yes Mr. Garrison, genetic engineering lets us correct God's horrible, horrible mistakes, like German people. - [link\|http://maxpages.com/southpark2k/Episode_105\|Mr. Hat]
