Not sure if this is a joke. Isn't excape velocity
the minimum speed an object without
propulsion needs to leave Earth? But these rockets have
propulsion, they could move at 10MPH as long as they keep going for
long enough.
Wish is the first Ultra Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (UMMORPG(TM)). "Ultra" means that Wish supports more than 10,000 simultanous players in a single, seamless world, without any zones or "shards".
In EQ you can have an effect on other characters in your zone (say a hundred people) but you can talk with all the other people on your server (thousands, maybe tens of thousands of people). This is a limitation, but in practical terms it works OK. I don't actually need to interact with more than a few people at a time.
The directors of a company have a legal obligation to consider the shareholders of their company. So they will always '...carefully consider any legitimate proposal...' whether they like the sound of it or not. In fact it is hard for the directors to recommend against a sufficiently high offer.

There is a picture of a fax machine, with this text.
To send a fax:
Dial the four digit access code Y
where 60097 equals f(f(f(Y)))
This machine has extension number Z
where f(f(Z)) = 1
(If you forgot your orientation packet,
E(x) = number of letters
when x is written out in American English
f(x) = 3[E(x)]^^3 -x)
Then there's the invitation to send your resume, etc.
PS yes I know that the American English bit is imprecise.
