remember my nickname for martine i.e. 'knuckles martine' because 'she' could pack a punch...despite being dressed up to the nines, as a lady - at the time etc etc....

was little colin also programmed as a 'lettuce leaf' at some point...because i can remember a programmer intoning the following "the cult and the VA peur....you are frightened.....running scared..."

coit vapeur....the VARRO cult....
