vampires won't try to pin crimes on animals

Shame ... and I thought that I had vampire rabbits.

"The Bloated Tuber has been found dessicated, completely drained of juice!"

Nobody's going to get this.

Hah! You over-estimate your audience; I was definitely lame enough to read those books as a kid. Guess I'll need to start equipping my fortress cats with boxes of toothpicks...

I read those books AND listened to the audiobooks, which were great.  Nothing lame about it.

Guys I'm wary of greening this question because it's really minor: is there a way to stop animated creatures from blinking with the n~ symbol?

EDIT: eh, let's phrase it this way: Could animated/ghost creatures stop blinking with N~ once they're assigned proper graphics?

I think it is hardcoded; I was worried it would be seizure-inducing but I think it is quite nice.

i think it is nice as it lets you know, that is not a friendly dwarf, not even close.

which can be slightly difficult even with a 16x16 texture pack.

Hey dudes, has the stone list once again become less functional? It seems to no longer allow me to control the use of all kinds of stone and once again only displays the economic ones. What gives?

Its more like a feature request than a bug. It always limited menu only to ore, that "limit stone only to ore and sharp blade" check couldn't appear in code on mistake.

...except no it didn't? Last version you could, say, declare every stone that wasn't microcline to be economic so your Masons and Crafters would only ever build things out of Blinding Blue. It was quite handy if, like me, you wanted a fort uniform in color. Until I hear Word of Toad I'm assuming that lessening of functionality in any aspect of the game is a bug.

Yeah, it was last version that was a bug - it got check on obsidian backwards (intended was to list only obsidian, but resulted in excluding obsidian and showing the rest).
