I thought people might find the following quotation of interest.  I have no
idea if the author has any connection with the SCA or not.  This is from The
Ambivalent Magician, by Simon Hawke (Warner Books, 1996).  Hawke may be the
American equivalent of Terry Pratchett.

"That's why people join the SCA and read fantasy novels, because the real
world sucks."
