Do you really want > to do that with all of its side implications? Hmm. It's only a tad !PC, since larger amounts of drink should start to have negative side effect (upto alchohol poisoning for those that attempt to drink 50 double-gins, or somesuch, to heal lots). Certainly the idea of morale (which could be enforced in the above example) is something I want to carry through, and in a way, some social environments *are* beneficial (a chance to relax after a stressful day, and suchforth) - mind you, you're more likely to get hung over than healed if you go out for a drink with the 'gang' in the sense above! ;) Regards, -Matt Chatterley <A HREF="http://user.itl.net/~neddy/index.html">http://user.itl.net/~neddy/index.html</A> "Fishing is complete and utter madness." -Spike Milligan </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <ul compact><li><strong>Follow-Ups</strong>: <ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00683" HREF="msg00683.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> clawrenc#cup,hp.com</li></ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00667" HREF="msg00667.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Caliban Tiresias Darklock <caliban#darklock,com></li></ul> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <UL><LI><STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A NAME="00645" HREF="msg00645.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></STRONG> <UL><LI><EM>From:</EM> clawrenc#cup,hp.com</LI></UL></LI> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00650.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Languages</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00652.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00645.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00667.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00651"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00651"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <ul compact> <ul compact> <ul compact> <ul compact> <ul compact> <ul compact> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00585" HREF="msg00585.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, Adam Wiggins <a href="mailto:nightfall#inficad,com">nightfall#inficad,com</a>, Mon 19 May 1997, 10:08 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00595" HREF="msg00595.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, Matt Chatterley <a href="mailto:root#mpc,dyn.ml.org">root#mpc,dyn.ml.org</a>, Mon 19 May 1997, 23:09 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00619" HREF="msg00619.html">Language</A></strong>, Adam Wiggins <a href="mailto:nightfall#inficad,com">nightfall#inficad,com</a>, Tue 20 May 1997, 11:37 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00645" HREF="msg00645.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Wed 21 May 1997, 08:24 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00651" HREF="msg00651.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, Matt Chatterley <a href="mailto:root#mpc,dyn.ml.org">root#mpc,dyn.ml.org</a>, Wed 21 May 1997, 13:21 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00667" HREF="msg00667.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, Caliban Tiresias Darklock <a href="mailto:caliban#darklock,com">caliban#darklock,com</a>, Thu 22 May 1997, 00:02 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00683" HREF="msg00683.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Thu 22 May 1997, 05:19 GMT </LI> </LI> </LI> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00644" HREF="msg00644.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Wed 21 May 1997, 08:09 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00649" HREF="msg00649.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, Adam Wiggins <a href="mailto:nightfall#inficad,com">nightfall#inficad,com</a>, Wed 21 May 1997, 12:37 GMT </LI> </LI> </UL> </LI> </ul> </ul> </ul> </ul> </ul> </ul> </ul> </ul> </LI> </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
