Just wanted to say I found the new bits interesting because they 
indicate that "pre-wish" alternate-Ranma wasn't a complete slime, 
regardless of what "post-wish" Ranma may be thinking of him.  After all, 
his influence was obviously what kept Gosunkugi from going off the deep 
end; and if Kinuko is telling even half the truth, he was decent to women 
he liked.  I even have a bit a sympathy for Kinuko...she has no *idea* 
how much Ranma's changed or why...

SKJAM!
