Abusive??? You want Abusive, I'll show you a good one and maybe give everyone
a clue to something. An "Enchanting Test" can be used to lower the karma cost
of many foci. Binder used to in his "younger days" make an object then charge
them the "full karmic cost" of the object, make the seperate test, and keep
the difference for his lonely little ol' self...combine that with money...oh
yeah, remember that really well...Rob Nesius probably does too if he thinks
about it (a butterfly knife come to mind Rob??)
