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! -- Sue Brezden Real World: Room 1B17 Net World: ihnp4!drutx!slb AT&T Information Systems 11900 North Pecos Westminster, Co. 80234 (303)538-3829 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your god may be dead, but mine aren't. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
