21:26 < srevilak> may need some editing
21:26 < Pirate_Joe> Well I think. Please review and determine what would

21:26 < srevilak> (just removal of dead air and such)
21:27 < Pirate_Joe> We hit a lot of good points but was done from my

21:28 < srevilak> Pirate_Joe made a respectable effort nonetheless
