    Shrill?  ROTFLMAO!  I'd hardly call Trampas' saying "Hey, somebody put
out a preview with a spelljammery-ship on PDF" as "shrill".

    Couple of points:
    Number one, this is an incredibly *dead* time for listservs, message
boards, and the like.  The reason ranges from Finals for students to people
gearing up for summer vacations.  Personally, I've been busy as hell at work
to get a project wrapped up before a June 1 deadline, and it has at times
been nerve-wracking (not to mention creativity-numbing).  I know other
members that are moving, changing jobs, and having to deal with "life".
This stuff happens, usually around this time of the year.
    Two, sorry, but no sympathy about being ignored.  I get ignored all the
time.  That's life.
    Three, hey Trampas, you're a list gawd now!  Whoot! ;)
