Hey, it's hard to keep on going.
Ever play Outburst with a good category? You get a lot of good answers
at first and then the answer rate sort of exponentially decays or
something.

I thought the opposite; that it was really good but the ending was
a bit disappointing. (ever since Dirk Gently he's gone towards sort of
a one-page wham! bam! slam! ending that sort of leaves you going "Wha?"
until you read it again another 34 times.)
