or two...but hey.....sounds like an idea.....

Paradox be damned, (in the words of my favorite mage, who then proceeded 
to turn several vamps to stone,) but do you realize how many CD's we're 
talkin' about here?  Like...oh...10 fer Bert, by the time he's done, and 
we know half (at least) of those are gonna all be BGZ (which, 
incidentally, I actually like *more* than BGC *boggle* even if it does 
take about the same length of time to read BGZ as it does to watch BGC.)
Tack on another 10 for Mr. Biles, and then..oh...another 10 for the rest 
of the world...oooh, 30 CD set, only 49.95, act now while supplies last.

On a non-spam note, I have this question for you people out there who 
probably've never heard of me. :)

Do you prefer long fics or short fics, and why?  Also, what are some 
tips on lengthening 'fics?  I'm having an extremely hard time writing my 
one 'long' 'fic... not to mention I've got quite a few more on the back 
burner.   Oh, and another question regarding Mr. Biles' 'technobabble' 
comments: How do you make that stuff sound convincing? Is it real tech 
that someone who isn't avidly into military/combat type stuff wouldn't 
know about?
