He still has his page at http://telltale.hart.org, and it has been
revamped. Looks nice. Anyway, after a couple of e-mails from me (and
I guess others) urging him to let us know what is going on with the
shirts, he finally posted an update. For all interested, I will post
it here:

...
The second thing only pertains to those members on the
ShadowRN Mailing List who think I've made off with
thier hard-earned cash. I believe that there's a
lot of you who think I've bilked you all, making
off with all that money... I do appreciate your
patience, and for not sending me hate e-mail. I have been
silent on this topic for a while, and now I just ask you to
have patience for another two weeks.

As you know, in August I was wed and moved across
country. I fully intended to get the shirts done
and out before the wedding, but my lazy attitude,
the whole wedding mess (and me telling someone
else I'll wait until they send in money -- although I'm not
blaming anyone else for something that was totally my
fault), and yes, the UPS strike all added up to
nada being done. I wanted these shirts off my
hands by Gen-Con (and a rumor started up that I
was going to Gen-Con and giving out the shirts there). But I
didn't get them out by the wedding date.

Which no doubt pissed off my friends on the
mailing list.

I'm not going to even describe the state of our
finances after the wedding, the move, and my
unemployment period in the land of High Cost of
Living.

"Deeds, not words." That's something that you'll
want. You'll want your shirts in your hands, and
you want them now. All you've heard from me so far
have been words. Originally, these shirts were
going to be sent out around Christmas, but that's changed.
Now they'll be out around Christmas, but Christmas this year.

I apologize most sincerely for the inexcusable
delay to all who have ordered shirts. I know that
some of you wouldn't trust this message -- I know
that I'd be really pissed off -- but now I have
the time, I've (finally) got the money, and I've (also finally) got
all the names and addresses ready.

You've read more words. In about two weeks, you'll
see the deeds.

His e-mail address is fauxpas@*********.com. Everyone, please drop
Thomas a line and urge him to come back to the list, and thank him
for his honesty and integrity for the above.
