I just noticed who the newest member is. His name is Hassan Ibn Sabbah, and is a [truly well-travled](http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix3/sabbahhibk.htm) figure.

Some warnings first, however. All discussions advocating the consumption of Hasish is right out. We caught on to that “Drug a guy, and put him in a room made to look like heaven.” scam. Oh, and it’s “raisins”, not “Maidens.”
