[02:06:51] <mrpg> The media. It has close to 10 years.

[02:51:52] <Bytram> It IS interesting, but too much there to easily summarize into a story. At least for me at the moment. Maybe tomorrow when I've had more sleep and time to gather my thoughts about it.
[02:52:39] <mrpg> Yes It's late, go to rest.
