From the Editor
When Bodvar Skutvik first asked me to look into the old Lila Squad archives to access if they could be put into some kind of order, I thought he was joking. I had browsed them from time to time and I knew they were in a jumble; many times I read posts I wished to return to again and could never find. So it was that the first couple times Bodvar mentioned writing The Lila Squad story I laughed it off, never answering him one way or another.
Finally after he asked me three times it dawned on me that he was actually serious. I decided to read the archives again, this time making an outline as I went so as to be able to return to what I considered Quality posts. The orginal idea was to cull only the best posts but it soon became apparent that I was no judge of what was best. In the end I thought it better to present the dialogues as they occurred without prejudice. Since the volume of posts in the old archives would make a tome of a couple thousand pages, I focused on only the first six months to cut it down to a managable size.
The old archives are located here: old Lila Squad archives.
Finally, I would like to thank all the contributors who have given their permission that I may use their writings in Lila's Child. I appreciate your confidence in me and will strive to present this work in as Quality a manner as possible.
