Dark Tower?)>>


Actually, by my guess, Doc Doom's Tower is still there, it just hasn't
been updated recently, it may not even still be maintained, but it is
still there (not unlike a previous copy of my page, which should be
deleted as of three months ago - but isn't). For example, try hitting
http://members.gnn.com/lenoj/johns.htm
I'm betting you'll find a copy of my page that is now more than six
months out of date and should have been deleted long ago.


<<Rather, have a Shadowrun Links page on the www.FASA.com website that's
updated every so often, and mention the FASA web site in the new book.
It would be much more easier to keep that current, rather than realizing
that in the sixth printing of SR3 that nine of the ten URLs mentioned in
the "Shadowrun Web Sites" section all come back with "404 - Not Found"
messages.>>


But that would require more maintenance on FASA's SR website than they
seem willing to put into it. I'll admit that FASA's site is slicker than
mine, but I really think that I put more into keeping it up than they do,
some days. <shrug> For some reason, the web doesn't seem to be a high
priority for the SR people, even though SR is the one game FASA publishes
that has any relation to the current Matrix (aka the Internet).
