As a submariner, I appreciate your views on Electric Boat's handling of records. However I should warn you that Wikipedia requires you to write in an encyclopedic manner, and avoid pushing your point of view, and of course to always source your claims. Thanks for fighting the good fight, however. -N 05:19, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Please note, the Plunger is the lead ship of the Plunger class submarines. If you have evidence they were called Adder-class submarines, you need to source the claim. Consider this your second warning on adding your own personal opinion without a source to Wikipedia. -N 19:03, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

You know, this doesn't have to be a one-sided conversation. I encourage you to tell me why you feel so compelled to attack Electric Boat. You look like you want to be improving Wikipedia. Wikipedia works by Wikipedia:Consensus. If we work together I'm sure we can find a way for your contributions to help the project in a productive way, rather than merely attacking Electric Boat. Leave me a message here or on my talk page. -N 19:51, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Oops I forgot to email you back. One thing I'm curious about, why don't you long into your account to make all your edits? -N 01:07, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
