             money.  The trade goods are only useful if somebody 
actually *wants* them. 
             It's a great stop gap for your problem as well: Ravenite 
haggling too much?
              Suddenly he runs into a lot of people who don't need 
anything he has.

             Besides, there's the added bonus of discarding the 
concept of "useless
             trade items" in lieu of cash, which I always found 
unbelievable anyways.

Thanks B.D. but I'm already one step ahead of ya,  If ya look at the 
second and third tables on the Gus list, you'll see that I already 
wrote in rolls not only to determine the value of the items, but how 
interested the buyer is.  I appreicate the reinforcement though.  I'll 
be the first to admit, while I do love to roll-play out things like 
that with my posses, but I'm not a trader.  Hee-Sung (Eagle the 
Ravenite's player,) is and he's a damn good one.  My problem was we 
were spending too much time trading and not enough time playing.
Oh, one more thing, on the Usable Currency Tables, I'm not sure if all 
my footnotes copied over to e-mail, if any of you Marshals that got a 
copy have noticed that it looks like one or two explainations are 
missing let me know and I'll get the errata out ASAP.
