You may already know about it, but I just found out about 'em tonight. I'm thinking they might come in handy for a character with a specific knowledge that I don't have.

And you are not even a little disturbed that "Diana Henderson, professor of literature and dean for curriculum and faculty support, has been named a MacVicar..."?

A Mac Vicar? Now I know that Mac fans haven't formed an organized religion (yet!) so I'm more that a little curious about this "vicar" appellation. Seems a little culty to me. And the only nonsectarian definition for "vicar" I know of is "a cleric or choir member appointed to sing certain parts of a cathedral service."

Will she be singing at me? Could be a hoot.
In any event, links like this are always appreciated. Thanks, Calli.

Ah, the Internet. So much potential. Soon everyone will be an expert on everything and nothing. Masamune Shirow's age of the external mind has surely arrived.

You should hang that on your wall, and lean backward against it from time to time.

To give yourself a pat on the back, of course.

Sure. Why not.
You and the rest of the gang should feel free to borrow it from time to time when you feel deserving.
