commander' is kind of like the 'hey lucky dice rolls can fix any
imbalance' line
 we get fed occasionally (ok its not quite so bad but yes it IS avoiding
the

kind of
speech often tends to degenerate into queries about just how useless the
local

not trying to start a bunch of flaming here so before anyone does Ill
apologize
to anyone who may feel slighted (especially if they see my point).
