And the Museums, Antiquities and Libraries Workers Union, erstwhile managing
the floating museum moored in the Brick-Morpork river (a WWI Indefatigable
Class Dreadnought) and the Brickish Museum of other people's Antiquities,
have had enough of being treated like fuddy duddies, geeks and dweebs, and
have decided that it is not the meek that shall inherit the world, but the
dudes with the 8 x 12 inch guns. In fact, they're extremely keen to get on
with the inheriting of the world (or at the very least everything within
9600 yards of said guns at said moorings in said river), just as soon as
they can work out how to turn the turrets....
