Therefore, I understand Greg's point that the info is provided as another way of saying "thank you" for your financial support. I also understand that the GTA info is speculative in nature (as if the same can't be said about all Gloranthan material), and should not be considered cannon. On the flip side, I do find it frustrating that I can't mention a piece of information that supports my position in an argument. Not that this happens to me very often, lurker that I am. I would much rather Greg find some other way of saying "thanks" - but not if as a result he stops providing the info altogether.
What's my point? Just that regardless of which side of the issue you support, you should try not to depict the GTA as an elitist cabal people with access to amazing secrets of gloranthan lore. The GTA is a charity, thinly disguised as a club, with information access provided as a way of saying "thanks" - rather like the return address labels that the Nature Conservancy sends me every year.
