During The War, we were all one big happy family.  It was hang together or hang separately time, and we hung together.  Terran and Peloran, cybernetic and artificial intelligence, and all the other little variants of the human race out there.  We fought for the survival of a way of life where we could all live in peace.  For all that it was one of the worst of times, it was also one of the best of times.  Thank God it ended.  If only we could have hung together after.
