It is interesting how the Brust interveiw thread has evolved. As much as I resent the epic train wreck that Robert Jordan has dragged (or would drugged be more appropriate?) me into, I am more interested in the last two comments made by the Author in the interview. . . . as I am also a lousy poker player, and it just so happens that I will be in Vegas at the end of the month. Any chance of a game? I am unfortunately deficient in funds (the best way to avoid losing money when in Vegas, don't bring any!) but we could play for puns. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself with the new version of MSN Messenger!
