That's not a good name because so many people are outraged by the brutal way they're cooked: throwing them alive into boiling water.
You're gonna get personcotted by PETA.
Now go for "Flustercuck: you'd be okay, probably get a lot of crossover trade. Controversy sells, these days, but animal atrocities and endangered species ... you just want steer clear of those.

One of my favorite books. I re-read it every couple of years or so.

Likewise - I was sure there was a sequel, but I can't remember the name, or find any reference to it.
Perhaps just wishful thinking...

Indeed. Niven and Pournelle are both alive and active, so one may hope.

I never seen such an action in favor of one person before in CP!
Kudos to Nagy, who bring the second most egoist people together...

Nonsense, I supported him, and I'm nearly all id.

On a serious note, we had several 'real' helping actions in the past (like donating money to some fellow CPian who were in trouble).

I have some code that I have outsourced to a contractor in my project. I wrote a requirement specification for that part of the code, which took me about one day, and that weird look from colleagues & boss because "Oh come on, this is someone we have been working with for ages, you are loosing your time, he knows what he does".
I got several deliveries in which features were missing or not correctly implemented, and the contractor fixed them on my request.
And yesterday, he eventually sent invoices for the fixes ??
So I sent him back the specification we had agreed upon, and got an embarrassed phone call this morning that went "mmmh yes mmmhh sorry about the specification thing mmmmh of course the costs go all on us mmmhh".
So me writing that spec on that day just saved us several k€... No more weird looks *revenge grin*
