I think the 2001 date on that Verant quote holds up as I think the quote refers to the Brain of Cazic Thule. There was plenty of chatter about that item in April 2001 on Allakhazam for example and I recall drooling over it back then but I don't see how it relates to a Velious era EQ. We have tradable flowing thought items now and it's obvious that the quote refers to the original concept of a flowing thought item where only planar level characters can loot it. So I view that quote as not in the spirit of a Velious era EQ.
