And, I hate falling for this sort of crap. I hated the Princess Bride (the novel) when I found out it was all fiction, and I've hated other stories that pull the same trick. But now that I know the gag it seems a lot more fun to play along with it.
(In fact, if I picked up the book I'd be inclined to tell my players that I heard of SSZ for years, but never listened to the radio plays just to be mean.)</b>

You're welcome, Robert.
It was a tough call. I kept going back and forth between ruining a surprise and not providing sufficient information in my review. I figured the spoiler was the best possible compromise.
