I actually have all the quotes, plus some more, but it's WAAAAY too long to post in one 24K window. If the mods don't object, I can post them, or i can just zip the file and send it to you personally.


and no, what is the "Church of the Firstborn?"

[Pilgrim]

wow, that was way long. Maybe you should chop it up into digestable bits?
