	Well Psinonicist have always been welcomed in my campaign and I
have never had a problem with them. Then again they are my favorite
class.

	This doesn't horrify me. But in my campaign I have a Psionic
resistance as well as a Magic Resistance.

	Well I never liked the simplistic view that all classes have a
sign on them identifying what class they are. IMC wizards don't have
long flowing robes and stupid looking pointed hats, Fighters are not all
dumb Conan looking brutes who only communicate in one syllable words,
Thieves are not all evil skinny people who run around with mask on there
faces telling people that they are thieves, And Clerics don't all run
around looking like Friar Tuck, unless of coarse the players want to
play their characters this way.

	I don't see them as that much different than Magic User. It is
just another type of power. I think they fit well in any setting.

	Well that is your opinion, Not mine:-)
