Messers kohler and Vader, would you be willing to take late-night
extensive brainstorming to private E-mail the next thyme around?

Before jaunting off to work this morning, I found over forty
messages from SHADOWRN and NERPS, and I had last logged in late the night
before! When 23 of 24 straight transmissions are from two people
discussing a single topic back and forth, it's well past the thyme to go
private. Simply post your results whenever you finish (in this case, dawn).

I am sorry if the posts flooded your mailer, but when I get up in
the afternoon (after staying up til 7 in the morning) and check my mail,
I've got a lot of messages from people who posted during the time that I
sleep. It was not brainstorming, in my opinion. We were just doing what
everyone else has been doing. It just so happens that we were the onlyt
two to be up and/or posting on that topic. Plus, if we only posted the
"final" product, then some of the stuff we discussed and/or disagreed about
would not be known. That material could spark an idea in another or
someone else could just have an opinion on it. So I am sorry if this
botheres you, but the messages weren't *that* long.
