I second this proposal. While I'm convinced that it wasn't meant as such (contrary to some remarks I've previously made on IRC), the title of the 003 GR was deceptive, and may have been at the cause of the current outcome. It's only fair to do it again, even if I agree with most of the changes in the GR. -- EARTH smog | bricks AIR -- mud -- FIRE soda water | tequila WATER -- with thanks to fortune
