Who is McCallister? Did he post this somewhere else, or forward it to you to post? (Are you planning to delete the previous version that has the formatting issues?) –M. J. Young

McCallister is one of my long-time players at RPOL.net. Currently, he’s fighting a T-Rex with Beowulf’s help…. He sent this to me a long time ago, and has given his enthusiastic permission to have it posted here and hopefully put up on your website. I guess I can delete the previous post. Eric
