positive press to get rolling, and I think that means a special clause of
some kind to allow it.>>
Then to fall back on what *I* was asking before, if a special case can be made for
magazines, then a special case could be made for game books. And if it can only be
made for magazines, then I will be tempted to claim that all my supplements are
"magazines"...
You can't make special cases without *inviting* abuse.
