Vanilla  frowned ever so slightly on that. Nabiki's
retelling of that adventure had been diquieting.

 Ukyou's head snapped up. "Waitaminute. How big is
this password?"

 "Seventy four characters."

 "There was something that always struck me as odd.
Whenever we figured out what the scam was and uncovered
it, and after we hid Kodachi when she joined us, they 
always said the same thing. Lemmee see the

This section confused me a bit.  It reads like a reference to something,
but I don't get it (other than the Gambling King).  Are these other
episodes in-joke references?  If so, a footnote as to where they're

>from would be nice; if not, a footnote to say that they're original

	*chuckle* Bert, Bert, Bert.. this is a reference to one
of America's greatest pop-cultural icons! That's straight from 
"Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?!"

those meddling kids and their blasted dog!!"

	hehehehehe.. Good work, Metro. I love this, and it's

	Take care, and have fun.
