[TheForge] Mastermyr - Fire Grid

Sun Jun 2 22:29:01 2002

Bill,
No, I haven't thought of a way to display it. :-(
I'm glad you did. :-)

To All:
I have 37 items in my possession (including the chest) at this time.
I plan on leaving Wichita on the 4th. So if any items are in transit
I hope they get here soon.

Once again thanks to everyone involved.
Rob
