John --

I, too, was in support of that "Open Letter to Toronto".

A week later, I was audited by the IRS!

So BE CAREFUL who you upset! <grin>

Peace,

Gee,  Ya,  Lets relive the magic high point of the RPG discussion.

How about, Lets repost the "Open Letter to Toronto" 

Lets have another productive round of How many people support........

On the other hand, maybe the 3 people that wrote in to support 
the "open Letter" can come forward and repost their position.

Whatta say  Roger, Hans, George, Jon.  

RP remember the "Fun" trip to Toronto??

Just a thought.

Remember people,  Sometimes the only thing worse than
not getting what you want, is getting what you asked for.

On the Other hand,   "Free"ing a hostage RPG was yesteryear's thing
Java will take over the whole market (right rp) and it's already
"Non-Positional"   So dump the Report Program Generator and
use Java it's FREE AND COOL already and it don't know from green.
