For all of you who read Richard's comments on Marisa Price's Lesson 
in Love, I would have to agree with him mostly.  I think that his 
comments about Ryouga, Ukyou, and Ranma being out of character were 
very true, I have never read Ranma to react so poorly in a 
situation as this, or for Ryouga to react so calmly as this.  But I 
have to disagree with his points on the ending.  He pointed out 
that the ending seemed a bit huffy, too pat, but I don't believe 
this to be so.  Akane does get angry very quickly but she also 
loses her anger very quickly (note: I'm refering to fights with her 
and Ranma and Ranma apologizes sincerely (Desperatly Seeking 
Shampoo, Ranma series Vol. 5....), she is a forgiving person 
(sometimes).   We all know she loves Ranma very much and given her 
position (in a hosp.. clinic bed) she was willing to listen to 
Ranma.

Richard nobody hates you for your criticism, you're doing your part 
as a member of the ML and helping Marisa out to be a better writer. 
I liked your criticism.  Very insightful.  Marisa has an excellent 
story here and I can't wait to read the end of it.

P.S.  Marisa I went on your site, I know what I read, it told me 
that the LiL XIII file was not found.  Was this because it was just 
an announcement or is there something wrong with my browser?
