But also no.Apparently, I missed the very short rise and long fall of TSR3 (TSR-cubed?), but while it would have been neat to see the TSR name again, it's just that ... a name. I don't get my youth back.I don't get my time back.I don't get that feeling of sitting down to play D&D and someone bringing in the brand new cassette tape* with Def Leppard's High n' Dry on it and having "Bringing on the Heartbeak" reverberate in my head while the DM is describing the Barrier Peaks.I don't have that sweet anticipation of thinking that another hardcover that will be as awesome as the efreeti-covered DMG will be pushed out.I don't have the pure joy of waiting to see what Gary will be putting forth in the next issue of Dragon.I have other delights, today, and that's okay. Those days are passed. They aren't coming back. And, honestly, just because there is a shared Gygax name .... it doesn't mean anything. Different people. I don't hold the Gygax name in esteem. I hold a specific Gygax, and ... well, the work that he did from the early 70s through 1985 in esteem.*These are the things that "albums" were on, between "records" and "CDs." And records and CDs... oh, never mind. Something something 8-track.</blockquote>
