On the one hand, that's true. On the other hand, history isn't a straight shot
forward into further progressiveness, and it's important to note that the
frontier gave a lot of people opportunities to be themselves and be respected
that they otherwise wouldn't have had. On the other other hand, I think you've
been doing that meaningfully - for instance, getting a transman in there was an
excellent idea.
Andrew "NO .SIG MAN" "Juan" Perron, has to work on some LNH Wild West stuff,
featuring Mozella the Thunderbird.
