I, too, have found the dialogues interesting, and have learned much
about times and activities that do not relate to my play in the SCA. I
feel (MY opinion, mind you) that this knowledge lends itself to a more
tolerant view of the diverse population of the SCA.

ANd, I like that an author cares enough about their work to make sure
it is as correct as possible. Many of us have experienced conflicting
information while doing research; I think these folk are wise to come
to the SCA folk who not only "know" but "live" the dream.

IMHO.
