We would be delighted to accept such a sim. Er, <i>he</i> would. But it would not influence the outcomes in the slightest, just make them much more quickly reached. Ms Connolly: there are always roles, even in a Atmidocracy (Rule by Steam), for enterprising and quick-witted types. Even if they are not skilled Technically there is always a need for someone handy with an oil can. Alternatively, there is always the option of simply basking in the social paradise thus created.

In addition, I would encourage my party delegates to back this intriguing behemoth. Unless of course, I were offered the Lt. Governor position by another candidate. I presume Iron Plato requires no assistance of a political nature.
