Oh, by the way...

If you think women have the right to own property, I'd avoid the Spare Time Shop. The store owner said some very offensive things about some of the people reading this when I stopped in to see if he had any Earthdawn books yesterday. I'm glad he didn't.

PS - Anyone who was wondering what Zelenka was doing at the beginning of Echoes? He was using my MQP to study Atlantis.

No, that's really not the question. He was upset because the previous customer was trying to shame him into a 25% discount. This, I understand. But when I asked him about the games I play that he (evidently) doesn't carry, he decided to take that frustration out on his female competitors. Not acceptable.

It's one thing to badmouth your competitors. It's another thing to make discriminatory comments about a class of people to which they belong, as apparently this person did. I agree with you entirely.
