Hey, wait a minute!  Who do you think wrote AMFV?  Heaven knows it's chock  
full of bimbos in bikinis.  Meretzky has a "dark side", and it's been a long  
time since we've heard from it.  Maybe we'll see something like this from  
Legend in the near future.

BTW, I lost all respect for Moriarty after "Loom".  Some of the solutions to  
puzzles in that one were so obvious I didn't think to try them.

"How I wish, how I wish you were here,
 We're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl, year after year.
 Running over the same old ground,
 What have we found?  The same old fears.
 Wish you were here."                         - Pink Floyd, 1975
