First time here! I brought doughnuts if anyone is interested. <Looks around mildly interested in the history of this old place>
Any reason why this structure is leaning more than a certain other tower in Pisa?
<Looks at Fatleaf in disbelief >
Leaning? never noticed any leaning.
"A brilliant game of blasting and trading... Truly a mega-game... The game of a lifetime." (Gold Medal Award, Zzap!64 May 1985).
Oh, please! It's only leaning a little bit - Capt'n Hesperus actually measured it as just 3º... in any case, I could go try to straighten the tower - anyone want Duc a la Ack-Ack?
You know those who, having been mugged and stabbed, fired, dog run over, house burned down, wife eloped with best friend, daughters becoming prostitutes and their countries invaded - still say that "all is well"?
I'm obviously not one of them.

Didn't the said Captain have a natural lean of his own though at this point, due to the grav plate servicing issues of The Dubious Profit?

I'm thinking about renting some earthmoving equipment and digging a lake down there - we could then have the social club's picnics by the waterfront, under that copse...
... also, anchoring a warship in the middle and having a hybrid semi-sentient giant mecha lying on the bottom would be really cool...
