[MUD-Dev] Re: let's call it a spellcraft
On 12:27 AM 9/25/98 -0400, I personally witnessed Travis Casey jumping up
to say:

And it also gives the phrase "unnatural" entirely new and very interesting
connotations... while people flying is not at all unnatural, raising the
dead *is*. Could lead to some interesting good/evil plays: good is natural,
evil is unnatural. Unnatural has always indicated some level of distaste:
unnatural interest, unnatural desires, unnatural acts, unnatural
appearance. I *like* this. Good show, man... exciting concept you came up with.
