I'd rather not have one too, but Karma isn't going to see the light of day
 
under RO sadly.

And, from what Ian has intimated, it won't appear in a pure form on the PC
 
either without a phenomenal cash injection - all the more reason for it's 

USP - life - to be included in something else, something that is well

I agree with you about the pre-online bit; I think that was the whole
