Dynamite Fishing [Updated More]
Latest: Officially, dynamite fishing no longer works. Originally: Dwarves (and others) can fish with dynamite! Almost. Use Ez-Thro Dynamite (or II) on a pool (school).

Cataclysm: Glyphs and Archaeology
New Cataclysm information via Wowhead, World of Raids and GamePlanet:
- Path of the Titans removed. It was too similar to the glyph system – as I predicted last year!
- Instead, a new tier of Medium Glyphs: “Major glyphs are still critical, but minor and medium glyphs have more flexibility.” “Medium glyphs will be to provide ‘fun’ alterations to abilities.” 3 glyphs of each type at level 85.
- Glyphs may be permanently learned, and then swapped from a list, not consumed on use. Scribes may produce a “kind of eraser” to allow glyphs to be swapped. Not yet confirmed.
- Inscription more focused on non-glyphs (cards, trinkets, offhand).
- Archaeology becomes more lore and storyline focused. Not a “must have” profession.
- 2 types of Archaeological discovery: Common Artifacts (lore-based collection game) and Rare Items (usable items – mostly “cosmetic”).
