Bart:
	We've been through this before, but it bears repeating: Marion Zimmer 
Bradley tried this with her Darkover series. She ended up getting sued 
by a fan writer, and lost a couple of years of work because of it. It's 
a nice thought, but unfortunately, Lidofsky's Law states, "If it's 
legal, and you can make money from it, somebody's going to do it."
