Yep, Dana, it will need to be reloaded.
I'll get it on Monday. I'm sure Deb would agree that there's no rush.
I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Rush? It wasn't there before, why worry? It'll get there when it gets there.
For heaven's sake, go have something to yummy to eat and doze and relax.

Thanks for all the fish.
Theo, can you please link me to 'Kid Dynamo'? I especially want to read about Magneto, because I don't believe that he's a straight on evil guy.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Or indeed a straight evil guy.
....ijs.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
From the rec.arts.comics.xbooks Frequently Asked Questions list:
--- What is this Kid Dynamo thing? Where can I find it?
Kid Dynamo is a fan-fiction written by once-netter Connie Hirsch, which deals with the New Mutants in the days just after Magneto took over the School (right after New Mutants #52). A very good story by any standards, most people who have read it have granted it automatic status in official Marvel history, vastly preferring it to the eventual rise of Cable and the appearance of X-Force, or at least delaying that inevitable occurence by including Kid Dynamo.
Here is a site that links to all the chapters.
I feel constrained to assert that the narrator is not a Mary Sue, I mean, aside from the obvious facts that she does not have ravishing red hair or a great singing voice, she's like way too angsty and neurotic to be perfect. Also there's that problem with the unreliable narration....
There really is quite a bit of pre-NM#52 Magneto here too.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Dang, Connie. I've just read the first two chapters and I'm ready to propose marriage. This is great.

Wow, Connie, how did I not know about this? Very impressive.
