I'm reconstructing the story that disappeared on me - I'm 2/3rds of the way done on the first draft. It is in need of some serious polishing as well. I'm also working on Lightwave 7.5. It's currently kicking my butt! Chuck - Those quotes are great! I stole two of them for my web site. (It has a random quote generator on the bottom of each page.) I'll have to look some more of his quotes up some time. Thanks!
