Shouldn't have been.  It's great stuff.

	About the length; well, if I wrote them any longer, I'd have 
problems editing the chapters with PINE.  [...]

About this.  I just bought a book on Emacs.  Why?  Emacs is a text
processor.  I can no longer keep up with anything I'm doing for the
remailer without it.  I would *strongly* suggest using it instead of pico. 

	On the chronologically displaced kids thing: Last year, around 
the beginning of December, people on the net were speculating about what 
Ranma's kids would be like.  This story was born out of that thread.  If 
I remember right, D&I #1 hit the net before December's End, but the 
identities of Spring, Tachi, etc. were not explicitly stated until D&I #4 
or so, which I wrote in January.

As I remember it, at the end of the first chapter, you challenged us to 
name the character's parents.  I know I responded within minutes of 
reading it with the correct answers.  They were kind of obvious.
