WHich index was that? Was that the one I did of all the cultures and
groups, thus making it easier to lookup a tribe and find the main culture?
Or are you talking the Cultural power page I just looked at? If the latter,
I'm sorry to say that is not mine, and I don't know why my name is attached
to it. I think all the data fort that is in either the site book or was in
one of the Hero Magazines.
