However, I don't specialize in trivia, so that doesn't bother me too much. In fact, my complaint is: THIS STUFF ISN'T NEARLY TRIVIAL ENOUGH!! Major characters or objects from the biggest classics in the field (Dune, Dragonriders of Pern, Foundation Trilogy, Tolkein, Heinlein, Niven's Known Space, etc.) or very popular recent series (Xanth, Darkover) aren't, in my book trivia. Certainly there can be trivia questions from widely read books -- but not names of major characters and such like. -- David Dyer-Bennet UUCP: ...!{allegra|decvax|ihnp4|purdue|shasta|utcsrgv}! decwrl!rhea!mrvax!ddb
