During July and August 2002, the SimGoddesses team will be relaxing on a secluded island in the Mediterranean Sea, where for a time we hope to shed our worries, our burdens, and our clothing while we enjoy debating the finer points of whether cephalopods are people, and pursue our quest for ever more exotic varieties of carrots. We hope you enjoy the web site while we are away, and we will look forward to playing with you again when we return!
