I just mowed the lawn... Not that it matters anything to you guys, but it was nice not sitting here pressing "reload" every other second The moral of my post: Go do something else for an hour or two. It's refreshing!!

In a secret underground bunker, somewhere in the American southwest, Vin and Ryan, dressed in the smart uniforms of PMDG's SSC (Strategic Software Command) sit before two complex consoles. Suddenly, a kalxon horn sounds - an incoming EAN! (Emergency Action Notification). A printer begins to clatter as a series of coded letters and numbers come in via the secure satellite comm link. The two men take the paper containing the code and walk to a locked safe affixed to the back wall of the bunker. Each man only knows one half of the combination. Vin dials in the first two numbers on the dial of the safe, and Ryan dials in the second set. They open the door. Inside the safe are 31 envelopes - one for each day of the month. They remove the envelope marked with that day's date, open it, and remove the single sheet of paper contained within. The paper contains a list of codes and corresponding actions - "test exercise", "beta release to testers" etc. They scan through the codes, looking for one which matches the EAN message just received. THERE! Next to the code just delivered, is the action order: "RELEASE NG TO CUSTOMERS" This is it! THE day has arrived! In the next few moments, months of training and practice drills will be applied to a real-world situation. Vin and Ryan move back to their control consoles - located close enough together to allow easy verbal communication, but far enough apart that no one person can operate both simultaneously. Each man removes a key from a chain around their neck, and inserts it into a lock on the console before him. On Vin's count of "3-2-1- TURN", the two men rotate the keys in the locks. Within seconds, a series of red status lights on each console begin to turn green, one by one. Installer: GO Livery Manager: GO Documentation: GO Tutorial: GO "Green board", says Vin Ryan gives the same report. At this moment the door opens, and General Robert S. Randazzo, commander of both the SSC and PMDG enters the room. He glances at Vin and Ryan. "Are you ready gentlemen?" "Yes sir!" the men exclaim in unison. General Randazzo steps to a pedestal located betwee the two consoles. Mounted on the pedestal is a single red button marked "LAUNCH". With a sly grin, the General raises his hand, and hovers it over the button. "Lets do it!" His hand comes down and mashes the button.... ... and the world of flight simulation changes forever. (This is what happens when I stay up late watching back-to back plays of "Fail Safe" and "Dr. Strangelove" on the classic movie channel! )

EDIT: ...The General raises his hand, and hovers it over the button, "Let's do it!" His hand comes crashing down and smashes the button. "Oh no..." Vins' and Ryans' complexions turn pale, "Sir," says Ryan, "What's happened?" "I've broken the damn button!" Vin falls off his seat, "You've got to be kidding." "I wish I was...quick call Nick, we need an emergency video!"
