| The credit card idea was Justin's NOT mine, but it's an idea that has some merit that's why I've mentioned it a couple of times. To stand still means we're not moving forward and if we accept the way the board is now, then we can't complain when it ends up again like it was 2 weeks ago. These are just ideas, that aren't forced upon anyone. The Jim Steinman website, Jim Steinman's blog are kinda deficant on regular news, The Neverland Chronicles would be a guaranteed update/retrospect view/fan opinons etc etc etc package every 2 months or every month. People always want something for nothing and if they have to pay for it, they feel robbed. That's why some people will object to the NL Chronicle idea as they can get it for free off the internet. > Pud, we've ALL gone crazy since Markus' girlfriend > left--the RR abhors the proverbial vacuum, you know and > Ryan's been busy.
