&gt;Wasn't there a casual suggestion when I was last on the list about what
&gt;it would be like (esp as a social experiment) to run a mud where the
&gt;players are the pests and the npcs are the giants?  In the style of
&gt;humans being treated as vermin when they're spotted.  (references to
&gt;various books forgotten)

Yup.  I proposed and championed that one without a lot of comment.

&gt;About the FAQ:  I definitely think there is a need for an FAQ, 

&lt;nod&gt;

&gt;I
&gt;personally got up to speed coz I think this list started in Feb and
&gt;Nathan Yospe was kind enuff to forward me a big glob of everything before
&gt;I joined.  Took some reading but I gathered what everyone's area of
&gt;expertise/interests/projects were.  Had I not, I would have caught up
&gt;eventually but not without more perspiration than liked.

Precisely.

&gt;Also, I think there is far too much talk about the FAQ and not enuff
&gt;action being done...  (with exception of the generous souls working on
&gt;the summaries)  So...  just to get things underway, how about sending
&gt;personal introductions to whomever is gonna be FAQ holder?  I personally
&gt;don't have a lot of time at hand but I am willing to glue together
&gt;summaries of members' interests and what not.  In fact... I've kept
&gt;introductions during that frantic April reign.

Cool.  How about you flue those intros together into passable structured
form, post that, and we'll work from there?
