It will return one day.<br />Regards,<br />EdEd Hillhttp://blog.dresstowin.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2116085973306668397.post-1481033003823830732010-06-14T12:34:41.892-07:002010-06-14T12:34:41.892-07:00No, I think you are right.

I also don't know that Blade Runner reference (will have to watch the whole of it again, some time) but I could probably make a good guess at the words inscribed on the blade of your dagger. ;) (MEhT)v.
