Technically, that quote from the Malleus Maleficarum is actually 3 sentences conjoined by semicolons. Nontheless, it is still a ridiculous and incomprehensible composition. However, I should hope you're not positing that final question of your message to the members of this board; for despite a few, the capacity for proper English is generally "lacking in abundance" of mastery to say the least.

Main Terminal: Specs for "Burst mode"
- Same deal as last time.
Finally after all those weeks we finally arrive at the final form for Grand Arms. On reflection why the hell did I give him so many different modes? Very few Gundams even have 3 modes! Oh well too late now so I'm going to go for the final goal.
Burst mode is stricly a super fast mode used to travel long distances in a short amount of time. He travels so fast in this mode it seems like teleportation. This mode can only be changed from "Waverider mode" so it is only used when therre is intent to go really fast. "Panzer mode" , "Fortressa mode" and "Waverider mode" can all be transformed from "Titan mode" and vice versa but "Burst mode" cannot. So it may the quickest mode but it takes the longest to transform into.
Another flaw in this mode is the lack of offensive and defensive power. Unlike "Waverider mode" which is compensated with mass amounts of missiles "Burst mode" must stay aerodynamically smooth and therefore its weapons are severly limited. That being said the speed of this mode was unmatched by anything on Earth or in the dimension of Grand Arms Panzer. This speed worked towards the advantage of Grand Arms.
Now for the specs:
Height: 7 meters (same measuring points as with "Wave rider mode"
Weight: ???
Power Generators: Cold Fusion Reactor, Alpha Engine, Beta Generator, Gamma Device
Armor: Grand Armian variant Panzer
Max speed: ???
Sustainable Max Speed: ???
Duration Speed could be maintianed for: ??? (Probally not long)
Weapons: Mega Fixer Cannon x2 (Fixed in place)
Secondary Systems: Burst Drive, Support Satelite
Ultimate Moves: Blazing Panzer Comet (With the extreme speed of this mode, Grand Arms can generate a powerful wave of relavistic energies which surronds the mecha. Grand Arms can then ram enemies with devestating results. The relavistic energies created cause massive damage to the enemies as well as physically being hit by Grand Arms Panzer. The kinetic energy generated are massive enought to destry most asteroids or small moons.)
Well that is all for Grand Arms Panzer.
Warniong Grand Arms Panzer Specs, skip if desired.

- Well, the debate is over, the battle has been joined and the most compelling question remains: red tie, or blue tie? It seems that, no matter what, these men always wear either red or blue, and never the same as the opponent. What about yellow and green ties? Too terrorist? Too fruity? What gives? Why isn't there more discussion about this? Perhaps the liberal media is too scared to touch it... (I for one can't wait for the front page stories about Tie-gate 2004...)

…George W. Bush abandons the religious rhetoric and promotes a return to the good old days of separation of church and state.
…the debate turns out to be an honest clash of ideas rather than a verbal filing of press releases.

- I thought the first sentence of the Malleus Maleficarum was the longest run on sentence ever... then I read the second:
"It has indeed lately come to Our ears, not without afflicting Us with bitter sorrow, that in
some parts of Northern Germany, as well as in the provinces, townships, territories, districts, and
dioceses of Mainz, Cologne, Tréves, Salzburg, and Bremen, many persons of both sexes,
unmindful of their own salvation and straying from the Catholic Faith, have abandoned themselves
to devils, incubi and succubi, and by their incantations, spells, conjurations, and other accursed
charms and crafts, enormities and horrid offences, have slain infants yet in the mother's womb, as
also the offspring of cattle, have blasted the produce of the earth, the grapes of the vine, the fruits
of the trees, nay, men and women, beasts of burthen, herd-beasts, as well as animals of other kinds,
vineyards, orchards, meadows, pasture-land, corn, wheat, and all other cereals; these wretches
furthermore afflict and torment men and women, beasts of burthen, herd-beasts, as well as animals
of other kinds, with terrible and piteous pains and sore diseases, both internal and external; they
hinder men from performing the sexual act and women from conceiving, whence husbands cannot
know their wives nor wives receive their husbands; over and above this, they blasphemously
renounce that Faith which is theirs by the Sacrament of Baptism, and at the instigation of the
Enemy of Mankind they do not shrink from committing and perpetrating the foulest abominations
and filthiest excesses to the deadly peril of their own souls, whereby they outrage the Divine
Majesty and are a cause of scandal and danger to very many."
Good god, who will save the English language?
