I also wonder if AD&D (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons) was a nod to AD&D (Accidental Death & Dismemberment), given that Gygax was in the insurance industry. It would probably be fun to make a parody version of AD&D called Accidental Death & Dismemberment.John Matthew Staterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310914386482078369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8653301951574738973.post-23427385305578105652014-12-17T12:11:50.770-08:002014-12-17T12:11:50.770-08:00I always thought it was interesting that the cold ...I always thought it was interesting that the cold miser was taller and thinner than the heat miser.
