and I think sarge meant "que" is the spanish word for "what".

I've been to Queequeg's, I always help them in the Coffee Wars and not the evil Pequod's. I did assume Queeaqueg was a fan of Deus Ex: Invisible War when he joined, actually.

The developers appear to have taken a dig at Starbuck's (named after a Moby Dick character) and had two rival coffee companies: the unscrupulous and dastardly Pequod's vs the plucky, prencipled underdogs, Queequegs. As I hadn't read Moby Dick when I played the game, I assumed the name was from Invisible War.

I loved the Olaf Stapledon quotes in Deus Ex, from his masterpiece,
Last and First Men. That's when I knew the game was special.
