Kato's bowing out for a while; like any group, we occasionally get into flame wars (less than most groups, I like to think), and he's burned out on riding herd on us. He's going to keep the hardware and software going, but he's otherwise stepping out for a while.

Well, I can understand Kato's point of view -- running a board like this is a hobby that takes the time of a full-time job. Burnout is quite understandable, and everyone can use a vacation. We'll see him again.

Default Come back when you are ready

We all want you to be happy Kato. Take as long as you need. We, the denizens of your dungeon (grin) will try to stay civilized!

For the first one I didn't, it's a french word. And some people around here complain that the french language is not well respected.

However, the meaning behind this word is not entirely positive (and I'm sure it was intended).

In Australia thongs are a type of very casual footwear.

Default Come back as you can Kato!

Sorry about not posting anything for a while, Ive been on the road.
Kato, I started using this spot for background info and additional material for many of the t2k games Ive been running, and the stuff Ive been writing. Ive chatted with many of these good'ol people and got a great amount of material ranging from fuel matters to the kind of thing you would almost expect from Rand.
I know you probably dont hear it enough, but youve really been a great help to me, and undoubtedly many others here. Thanks much, and I sure as hell hope that Paul is right in that youll miss us and stop by and occasionally peek in at the very least. In the meantime we'll try not to throw too much poop at each other

more like a babysitter -chaperone is negative in French ? I thought it meant elderly female relative that sees to it that no premature wedding is nescessary ? i.e that everything goes according to good manners-

You are right. However, it also implies that you cannot be trusted. In the literature, Chaperone are often given to characters who intend not to follow good manners or for girls that are dating man the parents don't want.

Usuallly, "Chaperonner" someone, is a painful distasteful task.
