    Could we have an octet that's not a thematic and not a longhaul, please? Either an couple of open class octets (those always fill up quickly) or a batch of banded octets. I'm having octet withdrawal over here!

    As an experiment, could you toss in a 1/0 open class octet, just to see how much we like 'em?

    Thanks much,
    Steve

    Oh, but, sir, an octet is twice the fun of a quartet! Surely you could arrange for an octet...or perhaps a lovely bowl of gruel...

    No harm done. I wasn't fooled for a minute. No, really, I wasn't, hey where ya goin'?

    Oh, and about the octets...um, hello?

    Is there anything so sweet as a freshly filled octet, trembling there, just waiting to start. Eight brave souls thinking: maybe this time I'll do everything just right and that stupid sandbagger guy that always beats me isn't even in this one...
