Whoa! That means that my runner I created way back when I started this game
has been running the shadows for.... 9 years now! Yikes! That's kinda
scary... He started at 19 years old, that means he's 28 now... Man. Other
runners must think he's an old fogey. :)
And he doesn't even have that much karma.. Hard to find a RL group around
here. Oh, well. I'll just have to fix that sooner or later. :) He'll get to
retire by the time he's 55, I swear!
