> A very fun story indeed, and an excellent illustration that authority is only granted by the people that one supposedly has it over. That's a seriously rough crossword puzzle, as well...

The Times crossword puzzle has certain codes to it once you get the knack.

> Good to see Mumph again, and while the story stands very well on its own, I certainly wouldn't mind seeing more come from these events either.

I hadn't intended this to be more than a one-off tale designed to fill in whicle people finished off their Moderator chapters - in fact I wrote this specially to avoid having to post any of the multi-chapter stories I've got waiting - but if people have ideas for things they'd like to write on this too then all well and good.
