I'd like to thank the couple of players who posted and the GMs who sent me
mail. I also made good use of the PBM List at pbm.com. Though the site really
would be much more useful with a search engine, the way the games are
categorized and can be narrowed down by interest works very well.

I was looking for an SF game, but I've gotten side-tracked by another interest
of mine: roleplaying an "occult investigator" character. I've sent in a
play-request for Sol III (members.aol.com/soliiigm/index.html), but also am
very interested in trying Out Time Days (www.twinengine.com) and Unexplained
(www.tightbeam.com/undying). Both of the latter GMs were very polite and
responsive when I sent them emails. All three games sound very interesting and
seem like they will provide lots of exciting role-playing.

Thanks again, everyone.

Chuck
