If I'm not going to get C&C on my fic, what's the point of posting it to

<Snicker> My website is full of stuff that will never be on the FFML for
just that reason. The way I see it, unless you're part of the IN group, 
no one listens to you. C'est la vie.

What in group?  There's hundreds of people on this list.  The problem is
that most of them either don't have time or don't have the desire to
comment on stories.  I only comment on a few stories because I have rather
limited time.  

But if you want to hallucinate a conspiracy, be my guest.

crush him, but he would not be broken.  It tried to blow him away, but he 
would not move.  He locked his mind around it and struck back with his 
anger, binding it with the power within himself.  He had gone beyond 
rage, into the calm at the heart of the hurricane of his anger.  By 
turning his anger outward, he mastered it, and now he did the same for 
the power.
