Well no, I can just delete them. I tend not to get too stressed about these things. This however, raises the point - in what past life did I do something to you? Why would you want to upset me? If anyone has any _genuine_ questions or need for clarification, just talk to me. However, if you are (for whatever reason) trying to score points, having a go at the Mongoose, working out stress or just want a pop at me, then I am really not interested. If you are working on an actual project and need to use material, I am all ears. Can't say fairier than that. I would remind everyone that I came on to this list to resolve an error that crept in with the section 15 of one book, and did so to the satisfaction of all parties concerned. It seems that was not enough for a small number of people here. Since I first posted on this list, I have seen my company slated by other publishers (all you gamers have a perfect right to do so, incidentally, but I get irritated when other publishers wade in), had some wag begin posting related material to another forum (for the public good, apparently), endured more mud-slinging than I deem purely necessary and had an utter monkey suggest that everyone goes out and starts posting negative reviews. What a crappy introduction. Now, I am currently floating a few ideas around the office to make a carte blanche change to our OGC declaration that should suit both our needs and those of anyone here who regards themselves as the OGC police. Oh, and of course it will have the beneficial side effect of clearing up any confusion with regards to those few people who have been mailing me with genuine questions about useage (these are the people I like - thoughtful, reasoning and _polite_). I said before, there are certain things we have to protect for reasons that do not seem to have been raised on this list, though they are very real to us. If I can find a reasonable road to cover both bases, I will. There is more to say, but it really would start the storm - so take this posting for what it is worth.
