Side note on quests:
My stance is that there are quests and then there are quests. For example in POBS, there were all the boring quests that were obviously made in 10 minutes because some guy had a job to make 132 quests by the end of the month. Then, out of no where you get this quest that sends you off the edge of the map, onto an island with hundreds of undead zombie types that slowly shamble after you, makes you look for stuff that actually goes along with the story line of the quests, and gives you the feeling that someone spent some actual time making this quest fun. You finish those quests having had fun and -- oh look at that, I just got a level without even having watched my xp bar.

"Hamilton is really a Colossus to the anti republican party. Without numbers he is an host within himself. They have got themselves into a defile where they might be finished but too much security on the republican part will give time to his talents and indefatigableness to extricate them. We have had only middling performances to oppose to him. In truth when he comes forward there is nobody but yourself who can meet him. His adversaries having begun the attack he has the advantage of answering them and remains unanswered himself. For God's sake take up your pen and give a fundamental reply to Curtius and Camillas" - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
