Ih his article, Eric McColm points out that the social and
societal-evolutionary implications of magic are staggering.

He goes on to point out that techonology probably wouldn't evolve.

Here's something I've been dying to do in a campaign, I just haven't found
the players that could handle it. It's a neet thing to think about:

	Current (1980's) society, based on magic instead of techonolgy.

I would like other people's opinions on what the world would be like...

Please post (or mail and I will summarize). I would like to get a table
of differances between the two cultures. If it really gets interseting and
complete, I may publish (giving full credit where due).

I await your replies.

Thanx.
