Hello Gene, Steven and List,

I know you are kidding Gene, but since there is a distinction  between
asteroids and planets  in large part based on the core  characteristics
of planets,  let's now take the reverse position and see if the Albion
might not indeed have been a part of the core of Planet X, now known as
the Asteroid Belt, before it got belted , so to speak.   I never give
up on this one.

Best regards,
Julia

Hmm,  I'll have to mull this over.

Actually the opponents are separate versions of the same person
who are diagonally parked in parallel universes.

The "opponent" is male and suffers from repressed castration anxiety.
Thus the predeliction for "scissors."

By all means, fire away.

caucasian ethnicity.
