[FX: sounds of not getting involved in this]

All I'm going to say is that physads start out weaker, but can get a lot
more powerful than street sams if given enough time and karma. A sam only
has so much Essence and Body to fill up, while a physad is virtually
unlimited.

This is the conclusion I've drawn from all the previous times we all felt
the need to compare the two...
