    Yes, I was interested and I looked it up.

    The former president's name is Ronald Reagan -- not Regan.

    The only problem with trivia is that it's just so darn ... errr, ummm ... trivial.

    I choose A.  Please keep the trivia coming, I really enjoy reading it.

    Stencil, here's one for you from WoW.

    There is an item called The Six Demon Bag.  Description: "...power of wind, fire, all that kind of thing!"

    What movie is that from?

    Too bad I still didn't play, they put so many things in their games and I forget most of them...

    Hey Mr. Stencil.  Thought of something else after I wrote that last post.  For your next set of trivia, perhaps you could cross post it here and also at www.heroshall.com/forums ?  I know a bunch of people, including myself, post there.  For anyone that doesn't...come check them out the boards!

    Thanks for bringing this back up… WOW when I read it again this time it says something I never intended to say.  What I was trying to say was that the trick that I use for spelling Gnomeregan is to think of president Reagan and just turn Gnomeregan into 2 words Gnome + Reagan subtract the A.  This makes for a great association for me at least.  Plus I have read some books and internet snippets that refer to Pres Reagan as a Gnome.  Plus to top it all off I think Reagan and the WOW gnomes look so much alike its crazy hence the look it up yourself if your interested J.  The way it comes across after rereading it is that I was hinting at historical association with Reagan and Gnomes, and blizzard was making a specific spoof off of this.  So like I said I am editing my post so no one gets the wrong idea, and thanks again for bringing it back up.
