Quote from: beeberstill wondering about his prat-itude, shadis editorial ability (or lack thereof) notwithstanding.  

Me too.  I mean, I'm sure that I couldn't edit Shadis either.

Quote from: Pierce InverarityHonestly? Even though he's clearly a prat also, I like the second Jim Pinto better.

What's the instrumentation industry?

Companies that make or produce solution involving devices that measure things. Temperature, and humidity sensors are among many device made. In this day and age it involves networking, processing and monitoring through the use of computers.

It only of the many manufacturing fields that the United States and other countries are involved in that don't get a whole lot of mainstream press. I am personally involved writing software and motion control for metal cutting machines using plasma cutting torches. Our software is specialized for the fabrication industry and Heating and Ventilation industry (the ductwork you see running inside buildings).

I know my answer is a little long but I know a lot of people in the US moan about the lack of opportunities except in certain well publicized fields (fast food, service companies, computer companies, etc). There are a whole host of lesser known companies, primarily manufacturing, that have good jobs for good wages.

Agreed.  I ran into this (in fact my brother has been doing it for years) when I consulted at Baxter.  It's big in the medical device field as well.

Five words for you: Secret Illegal Cross-country Road Race

I don't know about any other Wolrd;s Largest books, but Wolrd's Largest Dungeon was fun for all of the TPKs we've played in it.

Quote from: Erik Boielle;121615That is all.

I fear that there may be a bit of a disconnect, a miscommunication, at the source of this. If this opinion originated from the updates generated from his Kickstarters, then I suggest that the joke hit the reader the wrong way, and s/he did not realize the intent. Here is an interview that covers this topic—

I have enjoyed the missives from the 'narrator' that Jim (or, as he prefers, 'jim') created, in fact, the one I read today made me laugh out loud, and I saved a copy for a future laugh. Very creative and quite willing to go deep into character.

As with any humor, your mileage may vary, but I humbly suggest that an assumed character is not the person role-playing it.
