My mother has told me many stories of when she worked at a teen psyche hospital in Seattle. I have a vague idea what it's like. ;)

For better or for worse, Drakemoore's first 8 points are deliberate design choices by Jeff, which happen to conflict with some people's tastes. Current Spiderweb games differ from its first offerings in many ways, and they aren't going to go back. That doesn't mean everyone has to like it, but the only real option now is to try to develop a taste for the new style of game. A lot of people have found they can do this.

Point 9 is more debatable. The Darkside Loyalists certainly aren't lurking under every bed. But should they be? Dorikas is suspected of having infiltrated the Empire military, but he only got to the Northern Frontier a few days ahead of the PC. He hasn't had time to build a thorough web of agents there. And he's had his hands full just moving ahead through extremely hostile terrain.

About when? I have (more or less) from issue 50ish to 110ish. Be happy to scan and email.

According to the issue index in #112 - the first mention of the new player alchemist class is issue #2 (that's going to be expensive to get now) and the last was issue #49 where it had been nerfed down to NPC status. I really wished I had copied it back then. I suppose someday I'll eBay The Dragon reprints that were on CD-ROMs to get it.

Yeah, cause all Muslims are violent. My organic chemistry TA tried to kiss me on several occasions last semester.

The movie implied that caucasians had the superior sense of morality. Same with 300. Superior technology or no, arabs always end up as the evil savages. I'm sorry you are a jaded mainstream media consumer who thinks its not important to point things like this out anymore.

Well, wrong. Superstition involves believing something.

Do you believe anything when you say "bless you" or "break a leg", especially that the party just addressed is now blessed or divinely cured from disease, or is (or is not) going to have a bone fracture?

Because I don't. I sometimes even say "good morning" when the morning just sucks.
