A wise suggestion... ;-)  Say, Alanna, are we allowed to <thwack> bad
heralds with a rolled-up newspaper *off* the SCA-HERALDS list, or is
restricted to just there? ;-)

BTW Gorm, you (or rather Rhiannon I think) was asking about combat
archery earlier on the Merry Rose; for those that are interested, the
Information Superstore that is spiaggia.org has some varied
web-accesable articles about combat archery; see
http://www.spiaggia.org/archery.  Mind you, not all the articles in the
Combat Archery section are Atlantia-specific, so some are not terribly
applicable to us, but there are several useful articles there you might
want to peer at. ;-)
