Hi there !

I've been on the list for a while now (enough to buy the T-Shirt), and I've
been wandering: Am I the only one who spend MUCH more time reading the ShadowRN
mailing list then playing ? Even if don't read the stuff about magic, I still
spend often up to one hour every day to read the posts. Is there anyone that
knows a good shaman with the spell Increase English-Reading +4 ? Or a dealer
of good OCR-equiped cyber-eyes ?

Also, is there an estimated date for T-Shirt arrival ?

From personal experience, I can tell you you're not the only one. 1 to 2
hours reading mail per day is normal for me, most of it being from the
ShadowRN list.

I sent FL the designs a little over a week ago, so the shirts' arrival date
in his hands now...

Here's a way to do this. You go in and have your eyes replaced with Cyber
Cameras and at the same time have a few MP of memory installed in your
brain-housing-group. Then you can just take a picture of each post and store
it in your "brain", later when you are doing nothing (ie driving home from
work/school, sitting on the throne, etc) you can read the list at leasure.
You can be killing two birds with one stone.
