If you see that happening here (or anywhere), contact us on this board. BTW, I've been playing PQ for the last five hours, just reached Jurayn. At first, I was struck by how primitive PQ is compared to Lennus-II. Now, I'm caught up in it so deeply again, I remember why I was so charmed, and why Draken, Bongo`, and I (and Taskforce, whether he knows it or not, heh-heh...!) wanted to take on this project. Still, the PQ dialogue and naming system literally scream for expansion and re-write.

However, during the late fifties or early sixties, journalism schools began teaching the truncated version. I am more grammarian oriented, although I do have an extensive background in journalism. Nevertheless, I have more respect for writers than I do journalists (an esoteric attitude). Dang, I could have avoided this whole SNAFU by selecting the word matriculate!
