It's Asp, not ASP!

The thing is though - there was nothing wrong with polytechnics or colleges in the first place. Peeps went there to learn a trade or skills, and they usually came out having learned something useful that they could put to good use.

Then, something changed. Having no degree was suddenly seen as being some horrific disease, and everyone went berserk trying to make sure that every kid being thrown out of every school in the UK went on to university. It didn't matter if they weren't suited to that style of education, it didn't matter if they were rubbish and never learned a thing, it didn't matter if it cost the taxpayer a fortune.

All that mattered was that the UK could now suddenly boast this HUEG number of "graduates" and a massive seat of respected educators.

And look how it all turned out. McDonalds is full of them. So is the dole queue.

Anyway - it's still Asp and not ASP - and I love the sound of mine :)

Hmmm! I really don't want to say "I love the sound of your Asp" even if it's true :eek:

Xexexh > Fer de Lance is a snake? I did not know that, I thought they just wanted a ship with a french name ... now my mind will be blown if I learn that Federal Dropship is also a snake :p

So is it made by L.A.K.O.N? You only see ASP in places where all the names are in all CAPS, in normal text it's always Asp.

If the game can use both versions, then why cant we? also some aircraft names use cap letters in their name. so maybe that is why we see the same here.

Asp is the name of a certain snake species in which case many ships in ED are named after various snake species. Many people say "ASP" instead of "Asp", but A-S-P doesn't stand for anything. For crying out loud I even see the let's play ED videos with the gamer saying A-S-P instead of Asp. Seriously, go Google up 'asp snake' for verification. Come on guys, this is ridiculous.

Do you get irrationally annoyed when people say pin number or atm machine too? ;)

Actually the ATM machine one does make me go @___. sometimes. Though I also picture a machine that distributes ATMs so sometimes it can work out.

But in that the only reason ASP is capitalised is because it's a title. I'm pretty sure that Cobra would also be capitalised in that context.

Just considering when I change to the Asp, or do I upgrade all my main Cobra internals from second best to A grade at 1.5m each?

It's a tough choice may part exchange the type 6 at the same time.
