It was wierd last night when I stopped by (using bitchx on Debian). There was
a <crackmonkey> going on about mushroom clouds, and some others about
"trollfest", and none of it seemed to mesh together into threads. It seemed
like everybody was watching a common thing like a game and commenting upon it.
Anyway, I saw the web page and assumed people on the channel would be talking
about whatever UFO is about. I never assume of course, except when I do.
