Everyone seems to be using Summon Food and Drink as the prime examples of
uselessness. Well aren't we the class that has been complaining rather
loudly for over a year that our forage was capped so darned low? Well
aren't we?
Warrior Greaves cast Invisibility. That's cool, but we have a song for that
guys. Think about it, we *don't* have songs that can summon food and drink.
I think it's kinda nifty, but I will admit that I hope the BP casts Gate.
