no, you didn't. you did say she was very good, though. and i can totally see you saying that (before you said it just now), how you and her are the best writers in the shipdom, excepting that if/since it *is* the Oldest Shipdom that kinda strikes me as kind of sad, because you (and maybe her?) are (sorta) new (if you condsider that the ship's been around before you were born) and two people are not much, they are only two, although it's probable any _best_ (previous) writers could have graduated and moved on...
