But it could be again, Ray. We need the old far... ah, greybear... ah,
veteran players to come back and teach the world how it is done! Show the
world how to take a stab and dish one out again! Show the world how you
laugh in the face of danger! Show the world how you can die with the best
of 'em! (We want you back, but of course we don't want you to win.)
Get in there and tell 'em how to have fun again, Ray. Get off this porch
and DO something with your life! [insert stirring music here]
Are you convinced, yet?
-Adam
