OK, I read the Wikipedia article. The syndicate's incompetence is comical. I don't see why one would pick it for a rocket name. (Not that it's any of my business what you call your rockets.)Tentatively called 'Fine Cotton', which is almost funny if you're Australian and following the rocket's history and meaningless if you're from anywhere else.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_Cotton
Maybe the rescue rocket is really Bold Personality?Tentatively called 'Fine Cotton', which is almost funny if you're Australian and following the rocket's history and meaningless if you're from anywhere else.

Yup, Mets fan here. I can still sing the Rheingold jingle (well, parts of it, anyway).It probably helps to have grown up in a certain part of the country at a certain time (which we both did) and it might help to have been a Mets fan (which I wouldn't presume to say).
No, I can't. You've sent me down a rabbit hole that led to reading up on the Australian pre-decimal coins. did you know that the crown fits nicely into a 38 mm MMT?So Two-up it is.

For decades I thought they were from Australia...if it's really cold you've got yourself a rock band.
Coins in Ocean City Maryland has the best crabcakes.No, I can't. You've sent me down a rabbit hole that led to reading up on the Australian pre-decimal coins. did you know that the crown fits nicely into a 38 mm MMT?
(It's odd, I'm not a coin collector, and never have been. But I can't help reading about systems of coinage: the denominations, alloys, dimensions, and occasional trivia.)
