Yes, actually, all of the participants in the thread were posters I 
usually give the benefit of the doubt: Jo Serenadust, Heidi Tandy, 
Amanda Geist, lexicon Steve, Penny Linsenmeyer, and Finwitch.  I 
thought it was an interesting discussion, and I fall into the never-
read-or-have-any-interest-in-reading-fanfiction group.  The thread 
continues into Corinne's set, and she rejected them as well.  I'll 
leave them as rejected for now; but I may go back and change them at 
a later date.
