And so sorry Hellis, but... For whatever it's worth? The summer thunderstorms [i]can[/i] be something to enjoy - actually one of my favorite parts of summer, whether in Virginia or New York.

But of course (obviously) ymmv...

As sorta-kinda-sad as it will be to see this episode of Pieces end, in another way it's a bit like an accomplishment really. Everyone still here, should be [i]extremely[/i] proud of the magnificent work they've done. And it feels like such a success, to be able to point to a finished RP and know your hand was there in its creation, just like finishing a story.
