without breaking any NDA's (and I've checked your web page, btw thanks for
the earthdawn info on Duralon; I'm running a game using that ATM :-), have
they contacted you about doing any of that, or vice versa? being that you
wrote a load of Earthdawn stuff, do you think they might, if not?

Not according to my physician.

Very scurrilous. Bob's a gen-u-wine national treasure.
He's Texan, you know. EVERYTHING grows big down Texas
way.

It's 2062, man. I'd figure mime's are an endangered
species by then. I mean, you've got
'runners...er...running around, popping security
guards and cops and innocent bystanders for no good
reason. You think they're NOT gonna take down a mime
if they get the chance?

*lol*

Okay, that's an evil, EVIL pun, John...;)

But, c'mon, these are mimes. Regular, law-abiding
citizens WANT to kill them. Shadowrunners would do it
just on principle.
