    Thanks for the nod, Brett!

    Yup, that brought a much needed smile to the face, appreciate the acknowledgement! :) As you can tell, my modding life has slowed substaintially. Not dead, but certainly not the thriving productivity I used to have. With Quakecon coming up here in August, and Modders-Inc running the modding...
