No I'm pretty sure its 8a in one summer, incidentally the 2nd ascent of action directe was Alex Adler, although apparently there are some who are dubious about this, not me by the way just people from at the top of the scene way back when, '95 I believe.

[dave]

Q:  What is a 'shunting biscuit'?

The problem with this thread, (not that its a problem, mind!), is that its more fun thinking up your own questions than trying to answer other peoples! Maybe, we should have a system where if you get a correct answer you can pose a new question?

[fatneck]

MA needs to do Voyager really to keep the title

I've heard a rumour that he's on the case....

[tommytwotone]

7. What grade does deliverance get on One Summer?

MA needs to do Voyager really to keep the title
