It certainly looks that way doesn't it.  :(

We also appear to have a problem discussing said security
concerns in public. ;)

I'd also like to thank Mr. Maiden for showing his concern about
the welfare of our security system.

As for G2 I'd probably do both.  I realize that because of size,
experience, & skill the AOO has a huge vice grip on Olympia 1.  But I've
always believed in sticking with the ship until it's actually sunk, not
abandoning it when the crew or spectators say "you'll sink!"  It seems to
me that the right time to say, "drat, the AOO crushed me", is when they
actually do crush you, & not before.  To quit before then robs the victors
of a well-earned crushing victory & robs you of the exciting experience of
being utterly crushed.  A good sportsman, IMHO, can have a good time
crushing as well as being crushed.
