Of course, that's the Edge & Hinderance lists screwed...

Side note - the HoE history is proving to be hard work, 
since there's so much stuff people have forgotten.  Damn 
time travels messing things up.  Ah well.

Other Side Note - my HoE page should be updated pretty 
soon, and it'll have a new background that's much easier to 
read the text against.  Edge, Hinderance, Archetype and 
Aptitude lists have been updated to include everything but 
Cyborgs ('cause I'm picking it up today), and the timeline 
has some new stuff added.

Should be updated some time tonight (GMT).

Oh, and there's some junker gadgets I've been working on 
too.
