Why make stuff up? Just make what you have exciting -
If it wasn't such a thrill, or if we didn't think it was important, why else
would we be out there in all weather, getting paid peanuts, and just
basically putting up with all that crap...?

Are you suggesting that if we make up exciting story lines to go with our
otherwise dry reports that we could actually make money doing this? Wicked!
