| Oh come on. The Avian Flu didn't take, so now the media needs something new to scare people with. | |

During the last several years May First is when mostly (Illegal and Legal) Mexicans/Latinos/Hispanics parade around asking for Amnesty. I'm willing to bet that if Swine FLu doesn't appear in Los Angeles beyond a handful of cases during the next several days then after Mayday it will become a true "Pandemic" with dozens of people having contracted the Swine Flu as a result of there being May Day Parades. If this happens, and I hope it doesn't, I have a feeling that some nut job will try to blame it all on the immigrants and then things will snowball..

| Okay... Now that's a conspiracy theory... I just think it's the media making it much bigger threat than it actually is. That's what happened with the Avian Flu, and SARS, and whatevers... When the media makes it big enough issue, the goverments get into the general hysteria too and it just makes the people all the more scared... Once it has killed over million I'll start believing it's a bit more of a threat than a little cold... | |

If you think that's a perfectly natural thing to be paranoid, then no.

I have no clue what BESM actually contains and what it's good for (excepting role-playing) | "Big Eyes, Small Mouth" a roleplaying game for people who want an Anime based game. I bought the 1st Edition of it because I heard it was rules light, as opposed to the more rules heavy later versions. I would have to say that it IS fairly rules light. Character creation will not take too long if the players know what they want to play. There are three stats, Body, Mind, and Soul. The game only uses 2d6 for each player. It is a point based system and you choose different abilities you want based on how many points the GM assigns. So, if the GM assigns 15 points, then you have that many to spend on different abilities, like "Owning a Big Robot". You can take Character Flaws to get more points.
I will look through it more later. I have schoolwork to take care of.

Heroes was good until the end. Then the characters are just back at having really stupid ideas and doing dumb things.
