Abe Lincoln or Marky Twain, don't remember, it was so long ago, my memory grows dim...

It was Twain. Much too witty for Lincoln who was generally more rhetorical in his turns of phrase.

It's actually a proverb - at least, according to this website:

Oh, and about the Tachyon cannons not working...have you tried attacking a planet with a Massive Planetary Shield Generator? Might work then...

As for the quote, I really cannot remember where I got it. Could have been a fortune cookie for all I know. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

<hr /></blockquote>Hmmmm. A Google search has it attributed to Twain 3 or 4 times, Unknown a couple of times and to Abraham Lincoln once. Its at times like these that one needs an actual reference book that has been fact checked and edited. But the Last time I saw one of those it was really dusty from lack of use... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
