| Message | Certainly we are opposed to such an omnibus proposal that would spell destruction to the Rildanorian way of life we so cherish. |

| Message | Too extreme of a bill for me too. And you are not "the" blue party. You are one out of three blue parties in Rildanor, 23CC. |

| Date | 20:21:07, February 05, 2006 CET | From | Devout Ecologists Party | To | Debating the Blue Dawn Agenda (i) |
| Message | What? The bill has articles that we do not support, that are too extreme. And the LPP does not support articles either. You've got eight articles, what do you want? That we argue and argument all eight of em? You would have been better served to propose them seperatly then. |
