margaritarius
I've just discovered the profession I ought to have followed, simply because it has such a perfect name. A margaritarius is a trader in pearls. In Latin, anyway. I want to be a margaritarius.

Who has a spare two minutes to play in this month's FG Trivia game! ... My other OS is Slackware. Écrasez l'infâme! When you design tactics to maximise suffering on civilian populations and your only constraint is operational rather than moral, you've told the world who you are.

I thought you were going to post that you like margaritas but yeah that would make a nice change in conversation when asked "well, what do you do ?"

I just did a Google on margaritarius and Spot's initial post to FG was the fourth hit. Google is really something else.
