  - Really? You didn't watch the one about that basketball player that did that thing once? -- nm - Mop Aug 2, 18:44
  - Agreed. But this one is utterly superb. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Aug 2, 18:14

      - right (that is what I meant, the GN are pretty damn good, looking forward to the 3rd one) -- nm - Beaker Aug 2, 17:14

  - Do you think that's too low for such a quality piece of craftsmanship? It's too low, isn't it? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 2, 19:45 1
    - That looks like something you'd attach to something worth $6500. -- nm - Mop Aug 2, 20:15
