It takes a village
Or at least an effort.
I went down to the regional district office last week for one of their planning meetings. The masses had gathered to determine a vital matter for the three communities of the valley: Should there be a new gas station?
While the matter certainly wasn't anything of global proportions, it did bring one characteristic of the citizens here to light: Just how long have you been living here? One speaker after the other started their proposal with, "I've been here n years..." I imagine the message is supposed to add weight to their opinion.
You see and hear this...

Farewell, and thank you
A lot of blogs are reporting that Gary Gygax has passed. While we all must go eventually, it is still a sad event. His work started me along a many year gaming lifestyle, lead to me meeting a great many good friends, and helped me develop to the person I am.
For that, I thank him. Rest in peace, good sir.
