[pressgang] Hello from the void

[travis at mooquack.com]

Hi again,

It's really great to see many familiar names pop up in response to my  
email! It seems wild to me that we were just a bunch of young people  
many years ago and now some of you have gone on to create more young  
people. Needless to say, I learned a lot from children's television  
and decided not to have any of my own. I didn't want any sarcastic  
little Travlets running about and creating chaos. :)

All the best,

Trav.
