OT

I'd have deep concern about your tenure as G&K's Mage

Larry Niven has a whole series about the problems of mages in a world where "the magic goes away"; perhaps Merlin might find it of interest...

PS could it be that tekboy's new guru was actually the pompus ass? doubtful, since he was a pleasant brunch companion. Of course, there's no telling how he might have come across to someone who can't spell "pompous"... Besides, I have no new guru. I'm riding the old ones into the ground along with the rest...

Frank, Frank, Frank,

You DO leave yourself wide open for criticism sometimes.

Now we can add multiple attempts to visit a non existent room on the 21st floor of the Sahara to the anecdotal evidence of your lack of navigating skills.

It was the 26th floor, not the 21st. The reason I was going to the nonexistent room is because of an incorrect room number provided to me by none other than you. What was it that you were saying about my tenure? :)
