        I'm with you, Dan! I miss the adventure per book setup. Sure, I'll likely
use some of the resource material included in the book or I wouldn't purchase it!
But I LOVE adding to my stable of adventures! As a school teacher, I lack the free
time to sit down and write my own adventures so the published ones are invaluable
to me.
        On the adventure topic, I'm looking forward to the downloadable ones
through the website. Anyone know if these will consist of files that will require
an unzip program or somesuch to access?
