i did my part -- i bought every single title loki ever put out (before
they went under) specifically to support the company.   heck, descent 3,
railroad tycoon, civ ctp, EUS and heavy gear 2 are still in *shrink

them.

i voted with my dollar, but apparently my vote counted as much as a vote
for al gore in west dade county.   ;)
