I suppose I can bite the bullet and buy as many copies of The Fear Institute as possible, so as to save others from being infected. Then I can use the copies to attack my enemies.

Very cool news!

Yes, I'm very pleased. Took a while, but Cabal's found a good new home in North America.

Well this is unfortunate.

Side note: Holy crap, I've been waiting for this for an annoyingly long amount of time. Keep up the awesome work Mr Howard.

The long wait was an annoying to me as anyone. Believe me, I wanted TFI to be out in the US at the same time it came out in the UK.
