While I feel the same way towards carnals, I think they're a very powerful 
and realistic manifestation.   If all this stuff is generated solely by human 
beings, then Carnals make the most sense to me, since I'd be hard-pressed to 
find a topic more concentrated on and open to obsession and perversion than 
our single most important biological imperative.  

So they're unpleasant, but so are we before being filtered by society.

Off-topic, but slightly on-topic for the header:  I don't mind the easy-eye 
type font, but do the blank full pages irritate anyone else?  It's a minor 
nitpick, I know, but it felt like filler.

Overall, a terrific job on the magic book.   Usually a magic supplement is 
filled with dreary optional rules and dry text.  Not so in this case.  The 
rules fit neatly and seem actually useful, and the schools, items, and 
artifacts paint a broader picture of what's possible and happening in the OU 
rather than hedging it in.
