Re: [MR] Thorny questions of protocol

       [In] Sweden, [...] SCA royalty entertained the
       actual king, creating thorny questions of protocol.
  
  I can understand how they might consider any more on this to
  be beyond the scope of an article about Pennsic, but it left
  me wanting to know more:
  
  * When did this happen?
  * How was it covered in the mundane Swedish press?
  * What were the thorny issues of protocol?
  * How were they resolved?
  * Did the king of Sweden ever reciprocate?

I gather that the protocol issue is as follows: within the Society, we tend
to only recognize ranks that have been bestowed within the Society, or ranks
from organizations we have found equivalent (in rare circumnstances).

The King of Sweden isn't someone you can call Gus, however.
  
  Maybe I should pose these questions on the Drachenwalder
  list, if there is one.
