If I believed in the predictive power of the tarot deck and was informed
that tarot readings conducted over the internet (by e-mail) failed to
support my beliefs, I would only conceed that the tarot's power cannot be
transfered and translated into pulses of light in fiber-optic lines or
electrons in a copper wire. Perhaps the strange temporality of e-mail
interferes with crucial timing elements in the tarot process. Failure of
this kind will do nothing to end this thread. Another reason for
thinking so is that no one seems to be arguing in favor of the tarot's
predictive power. It's advocates are pretty uniform in thier support of
the tarot as an aid to introspection and as an organizing force in
decission-making.
That said, it could be fun. Count me in.

I missed your reference to the Creative Whack pack. Where can we find
details?
Take care, all. -KMO
