Hi, Theodoric.

According to some website called Truth or Fiction (a site that is apparently aimed at debunking "eRumors"), the Egyptian government is not allowing artifacts to be taken out of the Red Sea, so Buz and Archy would only get arrested (probably by Muslims) for trying to corroborate this.

Re: That sounds official

Hi, Theodoric.

There is a thing called underwater archaeology. There are a lot of artifacts in a lot of places that cannot or should not be removed from the water. I see nothing that says the Egyptians will not allow people to view the artifacts in situ.

Sarcasm. I should have seen that coming.

You said: "Buz knows where to find the wheel he and Archy should go get it" (Message 11).

I said they'd probably get arrested by Muslims if they did go get it. I was hoping it would invoke images about Buz in prison in a Muslim country that we could all laugh at.

But instead, I got talked down to because I decided to interpret "go get it" to not mean "go look at it."

What gives, dude?
