It's a really loose class with a really happy-go-lucky kind of prof, who is
letting our "class presentation" be basically whatever the hell we want it
to be about, as long as it's English and fits into the time scheme. HW is,
of course, modern. :)

FoFP didn't seem to agree w/my choice of Warrior. I always liked all the
Warrior On The Edge/Warriors/Standing At The Edge variations. Maybe it
won't seem as cheesy w/out the auditory accomaniment?
