Oh if ONLY I'd known about that a few months ago!
There's nothing like putting the final touches on a hard-won dialog
and then losing it all. I was so annoyed I hand-coded the rest!

Still, I am grateful for foxGUIb and appreciate the work you put into

astounded me. We long for a caring Universe which will save us from
our childish mistakes, and in the face of mountains of evidence to the
contrary we will pin all our hopes on the slimmest of doubts. God has
not been proven not to exist, therefore he must exist.
