I don't have my books with me, but amazon claims Orca has been out since 1996. Even if that's too early (it seems too early to me!) then Dragon came out in 1999. That's either 7 years or 4 years. Either way, that's an obscenely long time to put in spoiler protection. -- Matthew Hunter (matthew at infodancer.org) Public Key: http://matthew.infodancer.org/public_key.txt Homepage: http://matthew.infodancer.org/index.jsp Politics: http://www.triggerfinger.org/index.jsp
