Another note on the statement by the mother of two boys
who killed themselves in Layfayette, Colorado--D&D being
blamed for the deaths.  The paper said: 

	"Betty Erwin said police scoured her boy's 
	rooms but never found concrete evidence linking 
	their deaths to a fantasy game.  `I'd heard 
	that in (suicide) cases where there's a 
	connection, kids sometimes keep a diary,' she 
	said.  `Danny didn't keep a diary or log of 
	his characters.  He just wasn't obsessed with it.'"

Uh-oh.  Is keeping a "log" of your characters indicating
obsession now?  I don't know about anyone else, but I couldn't
keep things straight without some kind of log.

And I'd hate to think what the police would make of my piles of
notes, maps and etc. on my world that I DM in!
