TLG's products are educational, bio-degradable and all made here in the USA (even the dice are made in Mississippi)!

But to remain in close proximity, one needs to be sure they use the right-guard....

Here I thought that this was going to be about old school fonts.

I don't know about you yankees (I mean rebels), but I am playing it with kids in Taiwan to tighten AND broaden their English.

My girlfriend is in Hawaii for a week, that means I get to meet up with some fellow foreign gamers this weekend and run some 3.5 (my first time playing DnD proper in Taiwan). I'm gonna try to recruit them to the Crusades!

All the print products are printed and bound here in the U.S.?

If that is true it is wonderful news.

You can not believe the amount of books being printed and bound in China now-a-days. I even get and sell textbooks printed and bound in Canada! We are collectively draining our nation of vital industries for the sake of higher profits and less expensive gee-gaws.

When I started in the publishing business (non gaming) twenty years ago roughly 70% of the publishers I worked with printed here in the states, now it is about 10%, with the majority being printed in China, Korea and eastern Europe. I don't know how much, but the environmentalist doing their best to kill off the logging industry in this country has had a definite impact on the paper/printing industry here. Since demand for paper products didn't diminish, about all they accomplished was helping to cripple an american industry.

Yes indeed. I take great pride in the fact that we print and bind everything in the U.S.A. and for a time in Canada. We had to stop working with the Canadian printers as custom duties started getting too high.

So now everything is done here. The Starsiege Game is going to require dice and I'm looking at where in the U.S. we can buy these. The Zocchi dice won't cut it for that game.
We are one of the last publishers in our business that do this.

And to think this country used to be one of the biggest industrial centers. I See the effects of the loss of industry almost every day. Especially when I remember the Lee Jeans plant that was packed up and shipped to China. May it and Mexico rot for taking these jobs.

That's one reason I became a machinist. We're pretty safe for now from the educated idiots that are sending jobs away.
