This happened a little while ago (warning: Religious Nut on Video), and I heard about it then, but I got a link to it just now.

There's a sense, though, where this is that sort of thing I'm looking for as source for that story/novella/thing I keep meaning to write. Not religious nuts in particular, but the odd bits of spirituality, good and bad, that we find in our world today. I mean, for the most part, our world is pretty mundane, but there are motes of the strange lurking out there... I guess in a way I'm kind of interested in collecting them. Help is appreciated, if any of you happen to stumble upon anything spiritually, psychologically, biologically, sociologically, or philosopically strange out there on the internet.

In a related story, I'm still interested in trying to run a role-playing chronicle if I can get people interested in creating the same sort of story I'm looking to run. I tried once, and it kind of fell through from general disinterest and lack of enthusiasm. *meaningful cough* It would have to be through the internet somehow, though a messageboard or emailing list or shared journal or something, but... Anyways, just saying. In the mean time I'll just keep collecting my oddities.

(A further thought -- does anyone know where or how I could get a transcript of that video clip? There's a lot of cross-talk, but the more of it I could get in text, the more use I could make of it, I think. Thanks.)

I think this is the right interview (just don't tell your friends you went to the People for the American Way website... :) )

Ah-ha, yes. Wonderful. *rubs his hands excitedly*

Also, incidentally, I might be interested in your game, depending on the concept and required time committment.

Yes. I'll probably be making a post about it later. It'll be White Wolf, and I'll probably try to hide (though not disregard) a lot of the mechanical stuff so that it runs more like a story and less like a video game. A lot of the details will be malleable, though, save for things like tones and general themes and such. A good portion of it will depend on what players I get and how they want things, too.

Were you in Kurt's Changeling game? I want to say 'no,' but I can't remember exactly when or how I met you.

Nope, I was in Kirt's extremely short-lived Werewolf game.

Right, right -- you, me and Cathy, right? I remember that game. Good, if sporadic, times.
