Welcome Yastreb!
I love that fact about the RGPs, I've never heard that before! And don't worry, I think that we're all nerds here.
Watch out for the shadow people,

Welcome to the other new people, and thanks for the welcomes to the rest.

And it is quite funny how we've got a little cluster here in Perth.
Meanwhile, going by the Minnion Map, there's only one other reader in my entire country.
A friend of mine I mentioned this too has read aRTD though, and plans to read SSSS too at some point.

Welcome, Yastreb!! So glad you made it to the forum

Meanwhile, going by the Minnion Map, there's only one other reader in my entire country.
It's been a while since the map has been advertised, so there are probably readers out there who don't even know about the map. Speaking of which...*goes to make Disqus comment about map*
Butter good.

Not a new person, just an old one returning after a long time away.

I'm DancingRanger, And I'm returning after a long hiatus due to a lot of nasty personal issues. It's nice to be back.

Welcome back Ranger!

Just so you know - when applied to the anti-tank weapon, RPG doesn't stand for Rocket-Propelled Grenade - that's a backronym. The original Russian term for the weapon is the Ручной Противотанковый Гранатомёт (Ruchnoy Protivotankoviy Granatomyot), which roughly translates as "Hand-held anti-tank grenade launcher."

That is quite fascinating! Thank you!
