I dunno J.D., that might be true for Ivy but I'm not sure about the bulk of
the list. It might be more accurate to say that we're all of the opinion
that "My shadowrun-variant-
with-house-rules-for-ranges-unarmed-combat-character-creation-increase-attri
bute-spells-
etc is one of the best role-playing games ever". If the volume of mail on
the general topic of 'fill-in-the-blank is wrong, here's how it should be
done' is any guide, most of the people posting here think shadowrun sucks. Terry

I most certainly dont think that SR sux nor have I posted such a thing or
in any other way implied it. I am also sure that the huge majority of the
list feels the same way. You have been reading the wrong posts dude.
