No need to apologize, Yousef, I already said that it's OK for you to use the, "Make It So" epitaph. I know when you joined SI, and I know when you stole from "The Prophet Has Spoken." All is nevertheless forgiven. Best of luck; Rah Rah Rah; Tut Tut; Cheerio; and All That Jazz.

Yousef,

I'm an Intel 'people' and I don't know what the 'special meaning' is. Care to share?

And while we're being silly, Patrick Stewart (as Captain Picard) and the writers at Paramount made "Make it so" a catchphrase back in the 80's when ST:TNG first came out.

But of course everyone knows that. And Prophet is just joshing when he talks about 'permission required' for a somewhat mundane english phrase...right?

It's not like people have to call Joseph Heller, send him a quarter, and get his permission before they say "Catch-22."

'Make It So,'
