So the next time something seems screwy with the interface, and you wonder "geez...was the guy DRUNK when he made this?!" you'll have the answer.

Hmm and here I thought that was normal iced tea you were drinking all day...think I may have to move my desk next to Zombella!

Well I have a few that I would recommend, some have been said before and some not here we go. Some are not high fantasy though I will try to keep them seperate.
Tales of the Otori, by Lian Hearn: There are 3 books out right now and I have greatly enjoyed all of them. They are a very asian themed fantasy series with alot of intrigue and great fights. The main characters are very well written and the atmosphere is fantastic. Here are the Book names for those interested: Across the Nightingale Floor, Grass for His Pillow, Brilliance of the Moon. (Not High Fantasy)
Heroes Die & Blade of Tyshalle, by Matthew Woodring Stover:
I saw that someone listed one of these books before. But yes I highly recommend it. The main character plays an actor that is a fantasy anti-hero. It sounds very cheesy but it works and the lead character is written incredibly well. Also this series is definitely not for children, it is very violent and has some very graphic fights (Not High Fantasy)
Tales from the Nightside Series, by Simon R. Green:
Probably my most favorite short series right now. These books are short and quick reads but the characters are compelling and wonderfully realized. The first book is actually rather slow, but things pick up quickly in the second book and it keeps going from there. Here is the list of books in order with the final book not out yet (Feb 06): Something From the Nightside, Agents of Light and Darkness, Nightingale's Lament, Hex and the City, Paths not Taken, and Sharper than a Serpents Tooth. (Sci Fi, Fantasy, well everything actually)
Runelords Saga, by David Farland:
This was a very intriguing series. Has some great ideas that I don't think the author fully realized, but I still enjoyed the series. If you are looking for something that is high fantasy but with an original spin this is a great series. (high fantasy)
Oath of the Empire Saga, by Thomas Harlan:
This I thought was a great series that posed a what if the Roman empire has magic and sorcery. I really enjoyed this series, although I thought the characters were a little weak in some respects but overall I loved the atmosphere how various religions were interwoven into the series.
Of course I could go on with a Song of Fire and Ice, Riftwar Saga, Sword of Truth series, and others but most of those have already been said

Well from what I have read on the paper it seems pretty legitimate and doesn't make any far fetched claims as have previous Cold Fusion attempts. Plus they are using pretty tried and true methods to pull off what they did, and a pretty simple design really.
All in all their system looks more likely to stand up to peer review unlike previous claims. Now too bad it wasn't self sustained Then we would have be having a much more impressive discussion
