<nod> I remember way back at the beginning of this, Jim mentioned that
many of the Lot 6 characters had powers that could easily kill without
half trying. Adding to the confusion, they don't yet know all those
little-footnote-in-the-manual oddities and limits to their powers.
Weird thought for the day: if the Lot 6 characters' powers were
essentially manufactured, *is* there a manual? Written in English
translated from Japanese by someone who doesn't know either language,
but does have a stack of phrasebooks and dictionaries?
(Hint, Jim: if it wasn't obvious enough already, I'd really love to
see those Caterwaul back issues back in print so I can buy 'em all...
have you any plans?)
