Larry, it's good to hear from you.  And, personally, I think that Capclave
went very well indeed (although I might be biased).  I'll add a wry and
sincere thank you as well: it seems that no one recalls that there was
also a convention that weekend.  The committee, participants, and members
of Capclave did an excellent job which should be recognized, not buried
under a new spate of "Aren't they awful!"  In doing that, at least, the
Gillilands seem to have won.

As I've said elsewhere, this is pretty much the last gasp.  As long as
it's the whole thing that's distributed I'm not particularly concerned
about how people's characters might seem.  The document is so obviously
raving and internally inconsistent that anything contained is more than
doubtful.

(Although I'll once again petition Michael for an upgrade in status.)
