And, Mike, you're beating us to the punch with the historical stuff (vis a
vis us doing D20/Ars Magica crossover titles). ;) However, I have to
grudgingly concede that I'm VERY MUCH looking forward to your books, and
recommending them to the Ars Magica game fans.

This reminds me that one of the nice things about Open Gaming is that when
you sell some neat idea (say, a monster or spell) to one company, if it's
OGL'd you can go ahead and use it or refer to it in products for another
company. Which, honestly, is pretty cool.
(Of course, it depends on exactly how the OGC is structured in the first
company's published books.)
