Is it wrong that the first thing I thought of was how Salvatore killed Chewbacca? |

Having an innumerable amount of clones doesn't mean it is impossible to kill Elminster. Those clones just mean that his remaining "dead" isn't very likely... but killing him is as easy as overcoming all his other protectons. |

It's really a joke--RAS has said before that who the winner is would depend on who is the one writing the story.
hehe, I know ;) |

The audio clip is from R.A. Salvatore's seminar at this year's Gen Con. The people you hear asking questions are members of the audience. |

Much easier to hear if you use earphones. Bob's voice stays in the foreground that way, and the "whoahers" remain muffled in the background.
As others have said, nothing new, here. |

Pretty much for the same reasons Rinonalyrna suggested above.

-How so, bland? Not being funny, that much I can agree. This is the first interview with an author/designer that I can recall, in which the author/designer was somewhat critical of WotC and/or the design team calling the shots concerning the Forgotten Realms. The part where he alludes to Drow no longer having Infravision, and Narbondel suddenly becoming useless, that's as close to an author/designer being angry for rules/storyline/etc. change that I've ever heard. |

Hmmmph. I can't I was too surprised by the comments made in that "Friday Funny."

Drizzt vs. Elminster eh? LOL |

-That was a very candid interview. Raises R.A. Salvatore a notch higher in my book now. |

Salvatore: "If I ever get to use Elminster I will kill him."
That's goin' up on my wall.  |

Eh,I was hoping for something written. I just don't like watching or listening to interviews and such online.
