Bluemoon, I am so glad you posted that and very glad I opened the thread. I was thinking it was going to be the Rules that started with "You will be given a body" and etc and I almost didn't open it. I finally decided that I might as well read it again, and was happy to find these new "Instructions". Thanks for sharing, I loved it!
