I sense a lack of recklessness ...I, on the other hand, would immediately outsource everything except the "vision" folks who keep an eye on "the big picture", and a dozen or so really creative R&D guys and gals who come up with the "concepts". I forget who these people were (I remember one was "the math guy" who came up with the OGL in the first place), but if I inherited Aunt Helga's fortunes, I would find out real quick.Most projects would be on a open call "this is what we want, please submit ideas" independant writing basis. This way we can get Monte and Ed Greenwood when we need them (which is good for us), but leaves them plenty of free time to do their own things (which is good for the industry and gamers).I would keep an ear close to the gaming-ground. I might even make reading message boards (and other means of communication) a part-time responsibility for a bunch of employees. Of course, all good plans last until contact with the enemy. So, maybe none of this would actually get done. Who knows.I think I would definately, come Hell or High Water, make Hennett lose the S&M gear and put a darn shirt on. Yeah, I know I could pull that off anyway.Irda Ranger</blockquote>
