||||||||| Catherwood enters with Bunnyboy close behind, mumbles something about disrupting his 8:00 PM tree-stunting plans, and scurries off to the anteroom.
Bunnyboy: Stickin' muh toe in, 1 hour early.
Bunnyboy wanders behind a rock...
||||||||| Bunnyboy is forcibly ejected just as the clock strikes 8:02 PM.
||||||||| Catherwood strides in with a trumpet, plays a fanfare, and proclaims "Nine PM on Thursday, June 30, 2011 - I now declare alt.comedy.firesgn-thtre's chat officially open!" -- then he looks around at the empty room, looks at his watch, and mumbles "...am I early?"

cease: departs?
||||||||| Catherwood escorts Dexter Fong into the room, accepts a wooden nickel as a gratuity, mumbles something about 9:01 PM, then departs.

cease: and speaking of new yorkers.....
||||||||| Gusts of wind blow in from outside and the thumpa-thumpa-thumpa of helicopter blades is heard as Happy Panditt's chopper lands on the lawn and llanwydd plummets into the garden at 9:09 PM.

Elayne: See, my iPod is sentient. it knows
Bunnyboy: Full service now. On the bus.

BetweenHearAndTheir: Hello
Dexter Fong: Hey Tweeny
cease: hi tween

llanwydd: neurons! sounds pretty serious
Bunnyboy: Sounds like a Dr. Whiplash symptom...
||||||||| Catherwood leads H Stones inside, makes a note of the time (9:42 PM), then fades off into the distance going on about the waiting room or the sitting room or something.

llanwydd: or a chemical reuptake inhibitor
Principalpoop: mister dopamine

Principalpoop: poor honey, and we're glad you made it
cease: bummers, stones
Bunnyboy: Hemmie is moot.
H Stones: if it isnt one thing, its usually several more
cease: i hadnt realized merl got his name from that show
||||||||| Around 9:44 PM, H Stones walks off into the sunset...

cease: when bankers rule the world, what to you expect, stones?
||||||||| Catherwood enters the room, strikes a gong, and bellows "THE TIME IN NEW YORK IS 10 O'CLOCK", then silently exits.
H Stones: as the Fed are now facing oil etc being bought in Euros, it may soon be the other way round. I think American Independence could be a good idea
Principalpoop: he got it right, bravo catherwood
||||||||| Catherwood walks over to Principalpoop and inquires "Typing my name just to rile me, eh?"
Dexter Fong: Good timing Catherwood

Dexter Fong: What's a bequerels?
H Stones: excuse variable spelling but bequerels are the dosage levels of nuclear contamination over time
Dexter Fong: kinda like roentgens?
Principalpoop: rad man
H Stones: or as it says in Wiki..... 2The becquerel (symbol Bq) (pronounced: 'be-kə-rel) is the SI-derived unit of radioactivity. One Bq is defined as the activity of a quantity of radioactive material in which one nucleus decays per second. The Bq unit is therefore equivalent to s−1. The becquerel is named for Henri Becquerel, who shared a Nobel Prize with Pierre and Marie Curie for their work in discovering radioactivity.
