They're all pretty cool, live nearby, have plenty of time, and are just as excited as I am to play all this obscure stuff.Given that I've got these guys to play with, it suddenly makes perfect sense to me that I ought to buy a second copy of the original Top Secret rulebook; or that I would have to have all the 7th Sea Nations books; or supplements for the original Crimson Skies boardgame; or some 30-year-old naval miniatures rules; or half a dozen SPI monster games... Of course, in this delusional alternate reality, I've also suddenly got endless amounts of time to play, write and run campaigns for all this stuff. I suppose it's all just wishful thinking, or merely rationale for a bad spending habit, but I'll continue to hang on to it. You never know what tomorrow may bring.Carl</blockquote>
