Yeah, all this legal crap is a shame, but whaddya gonna do? At least WotC hasn't started hiring ninjas [yet].
Haven't you heard about their edition change ninjas that came out for both 3.0 and 3.5. They tried for 4.0 too, but we were ready and have been fighting back.Also, reports about our great forefathers death were attributed to him escaping the 3.5 edition change ninjas. (RIP G.G.)
