Hey robkuntz , how are things going today? Anymore reviews posted yet? Hi PD! Biz as usual, write, plan, assess. Next projects in the works. There is an outstanding review going on by a past interviewer (Multiverse) and two requests for same that have not been responded to. No doubt as people receive their shipments there might be more, as Shannon Applecline ("Dungeons & Designers") ordered a copy, and he is known to review products for our hobby. I have had no requests for additional review material although we have a select number of copies set aside for that. TLS has been solicited for a research project to provide an electronic copy of the MS, which is pending.

Just ordered a copy. Thanks to Perilous for reminding me about this! -Havard You are quite welcome! When I got home today, my wife had a big smile on her face, "Heyyyyyy Honey! Your book is here!" I look forward to reading it this evening and likely do like other people are doing, read it 2 or 3 times and soak it all in before posting about it!

Not me, I'm going to review the book without reading it . . . no, wait, that is the old me. Okay, I'll read the book then talk about it as the standards of this BBS are much stricter about that kind of thing

Spelled backwards is Wow... Good investments tend towards that kind of reaction. "Otto spelled backwards is Otto!" As I also said to Gary, "Otto spelled inside out is, "to-to". ..."

Hack verse, will struggle To make wise in verse. Though Tzhett's obfuscation Could make matters worse. Is it a math problem or perhaps a poem? Or a combination? A chiastic palindrome?
Palindrome, palindrome - Answer the phone. We pilots on Fractalus want to go back home.

Of obfuscation you are a master, no one will deny; however, we are sorry to hear of your Fractalus addiction, is it treatable? Have you had chiasticism a long time?
