I got a laugh over the attack on Clint spending so
much time answering emails/reading messages and
mailing lists/etc, etc that he wasn't doing the turns.
I thought it was very human.

at least the attack wasn't directed at you. Originally
I felt someone was upset at harly, and lauched an
denial of service attack on you, ie they went postal.
Having the attack on your provider makes me feel
better.

I also mentioned
a) waiting a few extra days to ensure everyone got
their orders into the correct address, and
b) training new GM's
I did mentioned different time zones, ie its 2.30pm on
the 15th for me. And I think its still the 14th in
Wales. So if something was coming out on (your) 15th,
then I get it on (my) 16th. But since the USA is
behind you, that doesn't apply for them.
Oh the joys of working with people like us :)

p.s if this email can reach Wales in a few seconds,
but light is traveling so slow around the world that
it is the 14th over there, does that mean that emails
travel faster than light ? :)
pps take special notice of the :) on that last line.
