Today is truly a sad day. I had a feeling that one day this page would one day fall prey to a pack of bored lawyers, and now it's happened. My worst fears have been realized. I'm sorry that I will no longer be able to provide an online resource to my fellow Indy fans. *sob*It was fun while it lasted.
