  • Ran across this– if you’ve ever read any of H.P. Lovecraft’s work, you’ll get the joke: Subj: Delta Green: How to Survive in a Lovecraft Story date: 98-04-27 13:29:22 EDT From: oaktree@nocturne.org (Chris Womack) Sender: owner-deltagreen@nocturne.org Reply-to: deltagreen@nocturne.org (Delta Green List) To: deltagreen@nocturne.org I wrote this a while back, and while I originally had Lovecraft’s…
