Much as I love the idea of reading NXE:TMP from start to finish on my desktop computer, my derriere can't handle the thought of sitting that long, so I:

1) Downloaded it in .txt format
2) Opened it in MS Word, and
3) Used the MS Reader add-on to convert it to a file my iPaq handheld can work with, then
4) Read the whole thing wherever I darn well pleased.

It's a beautiful day here in Northern California, and somehow it was just fitting that I spend it outside, reading a great story. Cheers to Gryphon and the others who are much more than token contributors, for it was an excellent tale.

That is all.
