    We tend to forget that we are writing amph. Every so often someone asks or someone thinks to enlighten the noobies.

    I doubt that anyone is doing it to confuse anybody.

    Just try it. You'll figure it out and before long it becomes second nature and then your friends have you committed. It's really fun!

    Bumping this thread for the newbies. Now you know why we call them "amphs"!

    Hmmm...maybe this could be the epitaph for HC...

    It's been a while since this thread surfaced, so I thought I'd bring it back to life for a moment. Let us not forget our roots...
