Greetings from Konrad,

The experiment was indeed started by  Pieter van Doorn (now Syr Pieter) when 
he was in Nant-y der Wyddon in Meridies.  I believe experiments were carried 
out in Meridies, Atlantia, Midrealm (his current home) and at Pennsic.  A 
summary article appeared in TI a year or so ago.

Regards,
Konrad

by
|
| Pieter van Doorn of Nant-y-Derwidden which was set up at many events in 
Black

in
