Scott,

Good point. I guess I'll just sit back and let the pieces fall where they
may.
Fine. I'll close out this rant by just saying that I do appreciate all the
good comments for and against. However, if you go back and count the actual
number of individuals who replied in favor, vs the number of RPG developers,
I'd say (for the last time here) that it is a bad decision.

Thanks!  :)
