Well, I still haven't got around to finishing my TP rant/article (and that was only a rough draft, not to mention it was only roughly 1/2 to 1/3 finished).

Ahh... I really do hope I get to finish it sometime.

And regarding that issue, here's a great "article" discussing this topic (an answer to a question I sent to John Oppliger):

Sums up my thoughts on the matter very nicely.

Anyways, thought I'd post an update. It's sad that the Anime & Manga Union has been so dead, and now is going AWOL. :(

I really need to try to get that place up and running again.
