But why can't we MAKE them "official", thereby creating more product 
and grabbing more players.  It was said on more than one thread that 
alot of games start at the game store shelf.  Is a new game going to 
get passed over that has JUST a set of rules, when the games next to 
it has rules and multible supplements?	We all know how great the 
system is, but how does a newbie know (especially considering that 
they all come shrink-wrapped)?	 I'm not citing a revelation here.  
Many before me here brought that analogy up, and I tend to agree (as 
MANY others did, too).

I wish I could sit back and be complacent, and I'm sure Jon is 
putting forth 110% effort into complying with all our wants.  Why 
can't we help?

No.  Never.  I never view others comments as destructive, and I thank 
you for replying.  You and Allan are only trying to express concerns 
I'm sure, but I'm not one to be negative/cautious about creativity 
and only want to make SG (and DS) more then a passing fancy (I'm NOT 
implying that it is either).
