[A quick note to those who have sent questions to me on Friday.
As I am home, my computer time is severely limited, as my folks
have this notion that I am addicted to the computer.  Well, that's
sort of true, but that's a different story.  I processed this list
at 2:32 am on Saturday, sneaking downstairs, risking my life ^^;;;
so I could jack my computer into the phone line and process this
list.  (Although, I'm pretty sure I didn't miss anyone, I triple
checked before sending this out.)

Oh yes.  I still haven't gotten around to improving the scripts so
people, don't do any jazz like fill in the form on a separate line.
It really confuses the script and all hell breaks loose.  Maybe in
January, when I write a smart script :P

Thank you for supporting the FFML Synopses List.]


                   The FFML Synopses List
                   ======================
For the week of: December 6 - December 12, 1997
Moderator on Duty: Key
Synopses Submitted: 24

This is the text version of the FFML Synopses List.  If any of
the fics in this list seem interesting, you are suggested to
either use the FFML Archive Number, if provided, to retrieve the
fic from the FFML Archive, or to email the author.  As stated
quite emphatically in the FFML FAQ, _DO NOT SEND REQUESTS TO THE
FFML_.  Although, personally we won't do anything, chances are,
you might get verbally abused by a few... (j/k, most people on
the list are quite tolerant and do not bite...  Just don't post
20 requests in a row...)

This list is sorted by series, and within each series, ordered 
alphabetically, according to last names.  The synopses here 
represent whatever has been sent to us, from Saturday to Friday.
