Also, thanks to Clouddancer and Transmute Jun for what you have provided in response to my questions. FREDDO

Amethyst: Thanks both for the response...and the advice to go light on the tech stuff. I'll try to keep that in mind as I work on this fic.

Hi, all..... Thanks for the nice welcome. Very glad for the input, the nice greetings, the Zark hate (LOL) and the character and series opinions. Interesting to see that my story is sort of close to those of others. I've posted my tech question (questions on the size and capabilities of Center Neptune/Crescent Coral) already in another thread. I also have some links to my stuff here: My BOTP story on fanfic.net (in progress: I am working on writing Ch. 5 of it now) [URL]http://www.fanfiction.net/s/[/URL]4587960/1/Plausible_Deniability (Note: rating will be going up from T to M for some stuff included in Ch. 5) (story includes crossover elements with both Star Blazers and Doctor Who...yes, I am somewhat strange) And, my fanfic website. I have a pretty good amount of writers and artists up. Primarily an SB/Yamato site now, I also have some of my Speed Racer/Dr Who crossovers up there, will post my BOTP stuff there soon, and would not be adverse to adding pure BOTP and Gatch stuff to my site....

Okay: I have a tech question that is a little abtrue, but I think it is easily answered.... In both BOTP/Gatch, I have the impression that Center Neptune/Crescent Coral is movable and the coral island on top is for camouflage. is that correct, or am I off base? And, if it is a movable submersible, what would its speed be? Also, approximately how big is it? I get the impression from the show it is...uhhh...pretty large. But how large? Length (although you could probably more likely say height?) beam, etc? The last question is on the size of its undewater docks? We all know there is a dock big enough to accomodate the GodPhoenix. I also recalll in the BOTP episodes "Destruction of Space Center" (which we all know was about the destruction and sinking of the base, Zark's lies otherwise) that she had a dock big enough to accomodate an ISO Sub/Submersible. I am working on a chapter of a fic which is BOTP **and** a crossover with another anime series in sections, so, my question is...would a submersible vessel a bit bigger than an Ohio-class sub possibly fit into one of those docking bays? (vessel length 265 meters vs Ohio-class sub, 170 meters) I know BOTP can be seen to be a bit more "elastic" than Gatch, maybe, because it seems to be in a more futuristic period where Earth is part of a big interstellar Federation of some kind....(which we know did not happen in Gatch...but makes for neat fanfic story premises...) Thanks for putting up with my questions.... FREDDO

Thanks for the post! Neat video!
