Is Minmus really a dessert?

[Der Anfang]

I have changed my mind. And I hope I am not the only one because I can't unsee the wasabe pea of Minmus.

If Life Support ever gets implemented in stock, I really hope we can use the resource system to set up snack mines on Minmus.

Minmus is made of microcline left over from thousands upon thousands of annoyed Dwarf Fortress players trying to get rid of the stuff.

Oh no. I fear you have hit closer to the truth than we realized.

Minimus is not microline; it is the other cyan mineral, which explains why (when you use EVE) the deepest portions glow eerily. The dessert fixation started with a confusion over the use of the word 'wafer'. Do NOT drill on Minimus. The snacks are a lie.

Mint Ice Cream. Squad should work out a partnership with HEB or Ben & Jerry's for "Minty Minmus" mint ice cream or somesuch.

Meh. I've got no beef with the microcline. It makes good mechanisms for traps and blocks for lining the aquaducts and wells. It's the orthoclase that needs to go! Ugly yellow stuff....

Minmus is a desert (hey, there's no rain) made of dessert. A desert dessert.
