Hi xDxD,

Good to hear from you - What a coincidence, I was looking at [DpSC] 
installation earlier on 
(http://degradarte.beyourbrowser.com/lpm2008.html). It looks pretty 
interesting also...

Glad that you found the Review of Meditation for Avatars interesting :-)

Not only is the ChakraPuter a decent piece of work, I also like a lot of 
your other work.

Great stuff...
