I just thought I'd draw attention to the recent updates to the FAQ.
I'm especially interested in feedback related to the revisions related
to Anti-Nazgul Blades (TM) as inspired by the /Reader's Companion/
(and as discussed in a recent thread). That being said, I probably
won't see any discussion here for a while, as I'm heading out shortly
on a bunch of job interviews. You might want to CC your comments
directly to me in email.
