The problem is getting people to know this. If we have problems getting
people to read the FAQ and post correctly, then we will definately have
problems with getting them to ignore sourcebooks.

Novels are another matter - we tend to ignore them :) (unless Nigel
Findley wrote them)

Ok - Seattle can have bugs - it has had bugs, and will have them again.
WE WILL NOT BECOME CHICAGO OR EVEN CLOSE.

That is one thing EVERYONE should know. It doesn't even have to be agreed
on. Doing something like that to Seattle is against the "NO MAJOR CHANGES"
rule. The nuke plot skirted it, but was mostly used to weaken Maxim since
they were a bit to strong.

Bugs do appear in other cities, they tend to get hunted down now.
Universal Brotherhood is illegal.

Besides - we need a new enemy after we rip of Sword of Dog's head

(And I have one for this summer - muhahahaha!!!)
