And it's a good job i did - neither my local games room, nor my backup internet
supplier have yet heard anything about the deal, so I pointed 'em both at the
PEG site, and they are both going to have a chat to their suppliers.  One of them
mentioned 'Histeria/Histerium' or something - I guess it's a race to see who can
supply me with what i want first.

The sad thing is that both guys mentioned that a lot of their contemporaries 
don't carry a lot of classic deadlands, and both mentioned the same d20 glut.

Ho hum.
