Don't belive the doom and gloom! The universe can still be a happy,
yet dangerous place! There is no need to have the universe as we knew
it end! The TML writes more about the Traveller (tm) Universe than
GDW anyway! Ha! We laugh at your silly virus! We wave #(*&%^#(&$&
in your face. Your Mother wore Zhodani combat boots and your father
was a Kzanti kitty cat!
Sorry about that. I was going through my old Traveller stuff
lastnight and realized that I've got plenty of unused ideas, plots,
counterplots and NPC's to run Traveller for the rest of my liffe. I
may pick up TNE just to have a really bad place for the players to
misjump to. (They thought Duluth was bad, hee, hee, hee.)
My gaming group is back together after the Renaissance Festival
break, and I'm the referee in two weeks. I tend to run SF Traveller
based games, I'm tired of the 'dark future' games. I miss the old
days (tm) when the Imperium was good, and the Zhodani were evil.
I dug out my list of Character careers and found the following. The
careers with '*' after the name are ones that follow Book-1's
generation system. The indented groups are sub-paths of one of the
others. The '()' give credit. Please note that '(original)' refers
to someone in my old gaming group, not necessarly to me.

Does anyone have a copy of 'Merchants & Merchandice' they'd be willing
to sell? How about old JoTAS? Or even old Traveller stuff?
Sorry to ramble on so long.
