Check it out again.  Guy reformed before the start of the second arc.  He's a good guy now.  Five pages a week, Sandy and Scott have made a lot of story.  Now in the fifth arc or so, current one stars Fiorella, couple previous centered on Reg King and Bert & Ernie.  And as I said in the forums there, if EFT is ever filmed, my vote to play Reginald King is Michael Dorn.

Been a fan for over a decade.  Have some signed strips acquired back when there were Linux shows at the Javits Center just across the Hudson.

Been a fan of Phil Foglio for about 35 years, actually.  First encountered him at a Westercon (1975, I think, might have been 1976) when he and Bob Asprin were putting on the "Capture" slide show.  And I want an mpeg or something of that show (not necessarily that performance), it was great.
