	I got involved with a friend putting together an Elite like
game. Of course I was looking at it from the point of view of a
Cherryh-like universe. That led onto old ideas I had for doing
Cherryh role playing game stuff and I've been playing with ideas for
ship design.
	For me, ship design comes first. We know from her writing how
ships more or less work and get around. I need some system for seeing
what parameters one can construct within to make conculsions about how
interstellar economy works beyond what she has written.
	The first thing I sat down to think about was the relative
technilogical level of the various races. Here's what I've come with
so far:
	Earth		0
	Union		2
	Alliance	1
	Hani		1
	Mahendosat	2
	Kif		2
	T'ca/Chi	4
	Knnn		6
	Sstsho		3

	Actually, it should probably be worked out per station...
