        Interesting, it's only four people, Tommy must be doing a *lot* of
work. Scott Rusch is presumably the man on the Strange Daze CD-R but I
know nothing of this Hunting Lodge he is listed as an alumnus of. Ryan
Kirk--could this be Dix? Who can say. And there's no Gammaknife! at all
there, though Brandon is. Hmm. I wouldn't mind this obscurity if I thought
it was still deliberate as it was when Buck McGibbony was involved,
but... Ah well, I'll be getting the discs of course so that will probably
settle my questions in all important respects, in that as long it's
Farflung I'll probably still like it... Thanks for informations, yours,

Jon
