Ouch. I thought I told the list to stop doing that; it's a serious bitch
to clean that stuff up off my monitor.

Like that damn ectoplasmic goo from Ghostbusters...if I'm not careful it
stains my dress clothes...I think I kept it off my nice suit this time, but
you do it again and I may be sending you a cleaning bill MC23.

Most of my games fall between a street-level campaign (which those folks
really aren't going to leave Seattle, really) and something that appears to
most eyes as ultra-high powered like Keith's game.

Even at our most powerful stages we rarely left Seattle. A few times out
to Salish-Sidhe lands, to Scotland once (the Imago adventure I think), to
Amazonia once, CalFree a time or two, New England once, Chicago a few times
and Denver once or twice. This was all in a span of several real time
years. But at least 75% of our adventures were in Seattle. We could
usually find more than ample intrigue there.
