BG, that was hardly a rant, but I hope you feel better none-the-less.
If I may point out one or two things. Firstly I agree with most of what you said, and well said, by the way.
As for the time thing, we awoke tied to the trees, we don't know how long we were there, but I believe in one of the first descriptions of the area someone mentioned the settng sun so that placed us in time as evening.
You are more than correct about the leader emerging, however; everyone please understand that there are several of us here with strong personalities. This may seem to lead to some conflict, but from what I've seen the conflict will only be an illusion as we all seem to be pretty reasonable. I will most likely NOT be that leader. I am neither tempermentally nor emotionally suited to be a leader. I'm more of an advisor, the (que dramatic music) Voice Of Reason if you will. However, if we seem to be spinning our wheels I have been known to make a decision if the situation calls for it. I doubt that will come up in this group.
And lastly, everyone, relax and have fun. We aren't going to be graded and there is no deadline. The evils of the world are not going to run amoke and commit hairy kairy if we take a few days to get everything sorted out.
Oh and DQueen, plan? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I'm not sure we are that organized. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
The universe is expanding -- that should ease traffic.
