(...) Nope, but my prediction was that if Adventurers continued, we would not see a return of Pirates. We may never see a return in any case. One can hope for 2001, but perhaps Pirates is just too out of style, and something hipper makes more sense (...) (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.pirates)
