Hey! Who's the GM here?

Actually, this would make my job easier. I can't mail out the Times until
after the turn runs anyway, since the list of those who will be receiving
the Times is generated as part of the process. Also, I'm currently manually
stripping headers and .signatures, and cleaning up after people that for
some reason can't put "CREDIT foo" in their Subject: line. A TIMES command
would automate the generation of the newsletter for me.

I like Steve's TIMES command suggestion. Except, in his example, the
attribution could easily be forged. But this is easily worked around.
