Default Now that\'s what I call unlucky!

Towards the end of my Last game I "inherited" a planet from the Eee that had a level 1 plague. Since I was mega-evil at the time, I wasn't in too much of a hurry to cure it. Imagine my surprise/amusement when I recieved a log message saying that the core of that very planet had grown unstable and was doomed to explode in one year! I almost feel bad for the poor little guys.

Assume you have a 1kg squirrel
E=mc^2
E=1kg(3x10^8m/s)^2=9x10^16J
which, if I'm not mistaken, is equivilent to roughly a 50 megaton nuclear bomb.
Fear the squirrel.

Dear Grandma,

Hi, it's Johhny.

How are you doing on the EEE homeworld?

Not doing good here.

Last week we were conquered by the hated Spoo Imperium. Al the grownups are very afraid of their soldiers, but I think they look funny. Did you know they can't even fly without machines and their bodies don't change shape?

I think they must not take baths very often, cause they stink really bad. Some people say the smell is what's causing everybody to get sick. Momma says that's silly talk, but I don't know. The nice thing is with all the sickness going around school has been closed.

I thought that pappa was going to take us to Coaster World this weekend, but they had to close it on account of all the ground shakes lately. I asked pappa what was causing that but he just shakes his tentacles and looks so sad.

Hope to see you soon Grandma.

Love, Johnny
