Nah... Nice-and-random as is, and could land you somewhere nasty..

Good point... VERY good point.. Hmm... not sure what compromise to make here,
aside from making it REALLY expensive... and maybe never get "cheaper" w/Level

Possibly... I'll see if the AD&D equiv.s restrict it, and go from there...
Could even require bad weather for Ice Storm..

Yeah - I'm just looking for a shortcut to keep from having to deal with the
adjusted base spell levels - if it defaults to the first level that spell
is offered (a simple min(x,y) should do it...) then I needn't hunt down all
the objects with the moved spells and change them...

Agreed!
