Oh yeah, I remember this.  The TSR loan shark.  Slightly different tactics,
same result.

Well in a nutshell they're just about in bankruptcy. Have prinetd NOTHING
sicne January (not even the magazines) as they can't pay the printers and
they have no credit.

WotC was tryign to buy them out last I heard, they and TSR jointly
announced a letter of intent, but I've heard rumors from my local game
retailer that ther are some hang-ups with some of the creditors...
