Please, stop.  You're making me weep.

All any of us can do is bemoan the passing of Mike
Pondsmith's innovative game design and whatever his
relationship with anime was.

It was FUZION that killed him you, know, or maybe it
was a symptom of the end.  Maybe he just woke up one
morning and realized what happened to Bulfinch and
Kafka.

I recall Kafka wanted all his works burnt.

I bought every damn R. Talsorian product I could get
my hands on -and I rarely earned all that much money. 
I even bought FIELDTRIP, for God's sake!  I even
bought LISTEN UP YOU PRIMITIVE SCREWHEADS.

When I think of the lost Ottoman Empire supplement, I
can't choke back the sobs.
