I'm a GM of the other kind, in that I like a changing universe. If nothing
changes, the world becomes boring after a while, as nothing ever happens.
No plot threads ever come up, because nothing is ever being changed.

If you want a static universe, why not stick with the systems books (SR3,
VR2, MITS, etc) and don't buy the Target: books, and other things like that?
