D'oh!
I guess I am going senile.
Hmm, does that mean it bounces back to OG?

Oops, I must be going senile.
I would say that was a foul and let it revert to you...

I'd say no foul - It was a different clue with the same solution. The came from me missing it! 
Up to you - if it want it Monday, it's yours.
If you don't, I'll take it.
Just let me know which way you want to play it.

I would rather you took it. I had no clues stored up, so I had to rush to make one up.
Thank you.

I did it!
I built this Fallout 4 mod that extends the basic perks with additional ranks up to level 100, adding new abilities, more damage, etc.
It overrides a lot of the game because it adds (among many other things) new ranks of Science! and Gun Nut which brings with it replaceable legendary effects on weapons and armor and a whole bunch of new weapon modifications, plus vault suit linings.
Anyway, a few people were miffed because it tends to interfere with other mods that do things like overhaul perks, weapons, and add craftable legendaries (because my mod already does those things)
What I did was I broke the mod up into 32 different esp modules so you could remove features you didn't want or would interfere. Some of them are interdependent so I was running into reference problems where my references would get fubared because they weren't linking the ESPs together properly so A would try to point to B:bar and instead it would break and point to A:foo
I figured out how to fix it. I had to hack Creation Kit with executable injection by way of neat tool someone wrote so that I could edit master files. Then I had to run xEdit with a custom command switch so I could hack my ESP files and set the master flag on them so they'd preserve my references.
Finally, since I don't always want you to have to take up 32 mod slots when you use this if you just want the whole thing, I use zEdit/zMerge to create a merged esp with everything in it.
Wow, this took me over a week. I wrote Parsley in less time than that.
I feel really freakin awesome right about now.

Geez this was hard. And cool.

I really like the way they designed the game engine. Essentially a blank book with the pages to fill, so to speak. The game just provides the landscape and the story creator fills the world up with adventures.

It's a nice idea, questionably executed, IMO. I was just about to rant about it actually.

Agree. Can use some polish here and there

Any guesses on what they will name the first plane?
I can only think of bad names, how about some positive ones?

Well, "Hindenburg" (German) could be read as "Dogs Castle" (English), so why not call the new plane the "Cat Shack"?

I think dogs would be hund..., guessing from Scandinavian cognates.

Then I'm sorry to inform you that according to Google Translate, hinde (German) is translated as dogs (English).
I don't know anything about Scandinavian cognates (about the only words I know are smorgasbord and aquavit )

Google also translates hund as dog in German (plural Hunde). But this leaves that -n, which neither of us can explain.
