Well, it is a record, but not by much--at least one previous chronicler
created a 3-4 month delay :^)

Since Annie apologized in public, I would like to respond in public
also.

The primary job of the Kingdom Chronicler is to put out the Acorn,
and to do it in a timely and effective fashion.  Kingdom Chronicler
is perhaps the toughest job in the kingdom, and Anne Elizabeth has
done a consistently excellent job throughout her tenure.  If the
Oak is late, so be it--the Acorn is on time, and that is the most
important thing by far.

So Annie, please don't whip yourself in public on the Oak's account--
you are doing a damn good job on the Acorn, and that is much higher
priority in my book.

Dafydd ap Gwystl,
Oak Editor

PS yes, I am likely fighting in Crown.
