Wow! I've actually met (albeit briefly) Gary Gygax...A local comic/gaming shop owner knew him and brought him in for a small gaming convention to GM his new game a few years back...very big draw...they had to essentially raffle off the slots for that particular game...

DL, wish I could have been there! It was a dark day on the World of Greyhawk Boards when he passed. The Neverwinter Nights PW we all play is based on his world and his game. We even had a small group of members who were sure he was a member. But of course with the suspected member still coming on after his passing, well that's gone the way of the Dodo... ;D And Raven, you've been a great help to me here, and I thank you for that!! Now however, if ya want an answer to #2... you'll have to answer my questions about #2

Miki... It's on my list, I was hoping to do it within a few years. I'd like to take a month and just travel around seeing the sights. Once I do that.... Maybe Down-under will be my final jaunt.
