Thank you very much.

I was just talking about the Space Station issue with Rick Kujawa. I
completely agree that there need to be links to stations and ground vehicles
and mecha and what not. The plan is in the end to have those lists/sites
encompassed withen Space World. See my new post above on this.

Again you addressed something very important. I was actually just going to
ask the group what I should do with the categories. I'm gonna post a message
about this in a sec once I get all my thoughts in order.

    This should come about later when we have more room on Space World. I
actually plan on doing this one myself. I'd like to make a subsite with all
sorts of categories of space people/beings like
Captains,Pilots,Villains,Robots, etc..

A lot of the big ships

    I'm going to address this one in a second..
