when we have the time and patience we're going to go through them, cross reference sites, clean it up a little, add ones that aren't there and probably repost the lists in the pagan discussion section of our guild and some of our other pagan guilds. I think it would help alot of people. oh and today we are going to send out an announcement to our members about our new affiliate guild with the new banner.

The passing days drew us closer
The pain is matched with joy.
Both hands reflect that
I cry when I think of you.
