Hmmm... I'd recommend that you work with your pharmacist until they get the dosages right. Sure, the colors may no longer be as bright, but I think the payoff in ability to focus will make it worthwhile. Either that, or troll elsewhere. BTW, Mani, Idunn, Thiassi, are all part of the Norse mythos. However none of them are simple cut-and-paste versions of what in TWK books.

Oh well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ StoneOx17 at aol.com — 26 Jan 2005, 02:02 follows, by subject match Kieran Mullen In a message dated 1/25/2005 10:14:42 PM Eastern Standard Time, kieran at ou.edu writes: > BTW, Mani, Idunn, Thiassi, are all part of the Norse mythos. > However none of them are simple cut-and-paste versions of what in TWK > books.
