Aldous. Well, I've done 13 pages. But now this thread is 27 pages... I'm wondering if I should do more. I'd be willing to do 15 pages (or more, time permitting). But I'll hold off on anymore work until I read your response--yea or nay.

Even though it's only been two years, it's been a real nostalgic trip reading through those old posts. All the great posters that stopped by. All the stories mention that have yet to be fully explored. Good times.
