You're welcome, that is my chief specialty, for in my life many others cannot notice it. Still, I am ignorant to what necros are, and I may have to search what they are with the internet.
Another interesting thing about the Middle East is that sometimes, smiths would heat steel blades white-hot and then hammer diamond and ruby dust into the blade. I am unsure if that method of smithing is a myth or not, though, but it would be a great feeling to hold a sword with a blade fused with precious stones.

Ah hah!
"Necro," the posting of messages in online forum threads that have not been used for a significant amount of time.
Makes sense to use a word about death.

I see the same level of irritation persists now as it did way back when. So, to AGAIN rise to it...

It doesn't matter.

Abu-Bakr isn't a specific name used only be only one person and one person only. The name "Abu Bakr" comes up today still as a given name to many people of Muslim culture and/or Arabic descent. It's a well respected and established Arab name, and no doubt comes up in works of fiction as well.

To be offended at the use of "Abu Bakr" is like being offended at someone using the name "Aaron". Who was the brother of Moses, a figure important in all three Judaic religions; Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

It's not offensive. If you want offensive, I could have named him Aachmad just as well. Get off the Political Correct Horse, you're making yourself look like an idiot by being offended for people who don't likely care.

I would, but you know. I also lost the original files to this story. So I can't really complete it. Well, I could if I copied this all into a notepad doc and then brooded over it for six months. But in the end I have other literary pursuits to keep my writing occupied.

I also don't have much interest in returning much, and I only came here to get some details on a gag. What's the gag? Well I'll explain in a tick.

My other literary pursuits have had me dabbling in Role-Playing and I've been GM'ing an immense alternate history Role-Play for about two years now. It's sort of become my pride and joy with a bunch of good people collaboratively. It's currently the monster of the roleplay forums over MineCraft Forums way. By prestige alone those of us within the RP and have established and developed ourselves within have come to rule those corners, I think.

It's also there that I decided to join a RS RP. It's really poorly built which has me and the PoW crew I herded onto it taking with a touch of satire. I only came back here at this moment to gather names to drop as references in the RP.

I think at this point I may run an arc in it about Poller being the executive of Doug and I fear him as an archaic cthulu like God. It only does them justice.
