Thanks for that, Wisemon. I may not be your dark side, but we do still have a heck of a lot in common.
And I'm glad that I've gotten to know myself over the past few years, too. I would feel bad about keeping Hunter in Lost Light if I hadn't.

And I want to thank you publically, Wisemon, for declining the request. What you said gave me the confidence I needed to get back on Archive's request from 2003. He may have forgotten about it... but I haven't. And it's going to be one of my two big stories for this year.
