 Why wouldn't we? That snapper's monopoly has to end. - Garth Haversham
-Eight times over 192 issues does not a monopoly make. Which is it this time, the [[Winelust Syrup|Winelust]] or the [[Adlorst Vinifera|Adlorst]]? Seriously! You barely answer his question, you make a crack about that trick you tried to pull a few years back, and "Ghoulanaut"? We both know that's nothing more than an urban legend! Where are our Quality Assurance Standards?! There's nothing about the white bark, nothing about it's fruit, and nothing about the effects of the encroaching stillicide! And what about the root system and the animals that make their home there! How about ''I'' write this entry, and you can handle the Classifieds? - Cyrus Grandville

 Nothing but [[Umlaut Tea|Umlaut]], my dear boy, nothing but Umlaut. You see, this is ''intent'', not ''drunken stupor''. If he wants to know the real and in-depth answers, he can do his own research into the boats, file his own requests at the Office, and take his own joy rides on the 'nauts. I'm sick and tired of silver-mooning him! And hey, if he happens to shakily etch out an "artist's rendition" of a Ghoulanaut, hazmat!

-"Sphoxolis Trees can be found in many places across known Ghyll, but if you're looking to get up close and personal, head to the [[Evesque Valley]]. The harvesters up there will bark poetic about the wood's use in the [[Besq Boats]], and go fruity about the magnificence of the [[Office of Knowledge About Things]]. The pliable nature of the lumber has purportedly helped in the creation of dynamic skeletons for the [[EctoMechanauts]]. Whatever you do, though, don't ignore a 'naut for an extended period of time... next thing you know, you'll be running from a Ghoulanaut."</blockquote>
