Dear Elaine,

Yes, your 'Top 12' were very amusing, but I wonder if a topic-specific list such as this is the appropriate forum for sharing jokes. I'm sure that many readers of this list get over 100 eMails per day and would like to keep things brief. Please, lets stick to the topic and share non-rp issues via direct eMail, not via the forum.

Gary.
