It was a castastophic cosmic event, where all the planets were suddenly thrown out of alignment and our beloved forum was temporarily sucked spining and whirling and still decending, like a spiral sea unending, through a black hole to an alternate universe where sounds of fury drowns the heart and every nerve is torn a part. But. there was a bright side, a silver lining, if you will, to our black cloud. Appearently, our beloved forum spent the day in the constellation of cygnus were the intrepid explorers aboard the Rocinante was able to access it and for the first time since being pulled through the black hole of cygnus x-1. has had the opportunity to see that humanity is still here and unfortuantely, is still in a state of sad hemispheres. But having had the opportunity to read our beloved forum, they are now optimistic that one day we still may a achieve a heart and mind united in a single Perfect Sphere. So be not sad that we were without our beloved forum for the day, but rather, rejoice in the knowledge that our forum is turely a light that spreads joy and hope for the future throughout the universe.
