We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about. “Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”. |

seems this will be the way after all.
this kind of tech has been around a while but is just getting popular. looks like we are going to have to relearn how to use what we reply on so much. |
