The likes of Jennie and Roseanne occur by chance and are not the
product of any breeding effort.

Now to produce the likes of Sarah Furgesson and Prince Charles, that
requires breeding. Though why the British Monarchy would breed for
such results is beyond me.

Prince Charles is just a typical aristocrat and a nice man; Sarah
Ferguson married into the monarchy, believe me, she has NO breeding.
Mind you, she seems to go down well in America.....

Actually, this leads me onto a question - I know there was an England
sourcebook out there a while ago... does anyone have a copy for sale
or know where I can find the information??

Do you know of anywhere I can still get the London book? Or anywhere
the information can be found on the net?

Well, perhaps not a major breeding effort, but a couple of couples had
to apply some breeding effort at some point or another....

For the record, Jenny McCarthy is from Chicago and Roseanne is from Salt
Lake City. Texas is not required to claim either of them (though I'd
claim Jenny as a Texan long before I claimed Roseanne).

Hey, now!! Leave Sarah Ferguson out of this; she wasn't bred into
royalty (she was a commoner before she married Andrew). Now Charles,
I'll admit, is a bit of an odd bird, but....

I think the LONDON SOURCEBOOK is still available on FASA's home page.

Now what does that tell us?

There was a UK sourcebook, handily titled "London Sourcebook," published
by FASA in 1991, as stock number 7203, ISBN 1-55560-131-6. It's out of
print, but you can still find it in places.

Alternatively, you can take a look at Avenger's "Survival Guide to the
UK," which is a WWW-based alternative to the London Sourcebook. I don't
remember the URL right now, but starting at http://shalako.demon.co.uk/
might point you in the right direction.

With "XXX" in your signature that somehow surprises me... ;)

There is a page that has a link to a downloadable alternative UK source book at
http://freespace.virgin.net/p.siems/index.htm I found this link on my page at
http://www.spydernet.com/oliver/shadowrun/index.html which BTW has links to all pages
I know about that have place information as it pertains to Shadowrun.

You know, K, being involved in a PBEM with Padre', this statement makes me
very, very worried.

You should have been there for the game this last weekend. I thought *I* was
going to fall out of my chair from laughing so hard. The home group is not
known (very well at least) for having anything even closing resembling a
*plan*. At least, one that they will stick with.

Question: Was this another FanPro production, or some other company?
Something else it would be nice to get a translation of, or at least
highlights...
