Great... We have the "stable" (i.e. v1.76),
we have the young commander Jameson and the 3 wise men...
It seems the Oolite community is ready for a Merry fine Christmas! :)

Note: Could anyone from our talented crew
add a stable with an "Oolite stable MMMMDCLXXIX" sign? 8)

A very personal opinion: I find that pic somewhat distasteful, and I object to my avatar being used in it.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

I find that associating our Lord with weapons of war to be indescribably in bad taste... He is the Prince of Peace. Shame on those that think that this is cute or fitting!!!!!

Given how many wars are started in "His" name...

However, since Smivs has already withdrawn said picture - let that be an end of it.

I can see the agnostics and the atheiests have put their two cents in... don't forget that Muslims also start wars in their Allahs name.

That is true, and please have a look at my Avatar, Smivs was trying to mention me as a team member. So it was an unintentional joke which did not work. Ok lets forget this discussion and a merry XMas and happy new year all.

Cheers,
