I share Sidous's unease with the casual disregard he displays to something like channeler strength, the identificaiton of individual angreal etc.
I'm curious about why people find relative strengths in the One Power to be so interesting. Being a physicist of the theoretical orientation, I absolutely agree that it can be interesting to study something with little or no practical application, but I've never had that much interest in strength. I'll happily discuss other aspects of the One Power, though, such as how Traveling became a lost Talent. If anyone can shed some light on why they are interested in One Power strength, I'd be happy to read it.
