Hmmmmph.  That'll teach me to sit on an idea for awhile:)

I've been doing Realmspace updates and sending them to the list for the
past year or so.  Most of them appear on Static's webpage,  as well on a
couple of other spots on the web.  I'd be happy to send them to you if
you'd like.  After covering the elves, scro,  Shou,  and neogi I started
covering each of the planets,  starting with Anadia and working my way out.
I am just now getting to Selune and the Tears,  hope to put my stuff out
next week.  I've been leaning towards Selune as an uninhabited moon,  or a
totally rich region.  the jurors still out.  Love to see more of what
you've got,

"We look on the same stars,  the sky is common,  the same world surrounds
us.  What difference does it make by what pains each seeks the truth?  We
can not attain to so great a secret by one road..."

Victory from the Senate House" (392 AD)
