| Message | And adults are just as smart as well? Small fireworks are nothing....i played with as a child and nothing bad happened. Your making a big mistake by allowing anyone to purchase fireworks of any caliber, as improperly used they can cause mass devestation. You of all people should know that. |

| Message | On further reflection they weren't fireworks.... They were those small fire crackler thingies...and i got to play with cherry bombs...but only when my parents were around. Still...the point stands, better small fireworks to the public, then any nutso with the big stuff, which does contain gunpowder ya know... |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
| Random quote: The Wolfsheim Virus is not a real actual disease in the conventional medical sense of the term. Rather, it is a cluster of symptoms which are just part of the general socio-economic disease that is capitalism. The main symptoms the sufferers are experiencing are a direct result of capitalist poverty, as in malnutrition, poor housing and so on, combined with psycho-somatic symptoms which are a direct consequence of the contradictions and stresses which are inherent to the capitalist system. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
