The making of Heartland

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

The days are getting shorter, the christmas stuff is in the shops again, and on long boring eves the wee ones want to hear stories from the elders.

Stories like "How did this place here start? Who had the idea, what was the way the Modgods found their way to gather and design the place?"
I just did a search which had no result of that topic ever being treated in a thread of it's own, thus I started it.

So, how did it happen back in 2002?

:D

I think I'll leave that to Barry to tackle. Rest assured, I promise to fill in any missing bits, or help out with any necessary "corrections" to the tale... ;)

Stay tuned. :von:
