principalities....Hi Eilis!

[stddly at SHSU.edu]

Greetings are given to all the Good Folk that see these words!

Earlier today I wrote about my Hammer beating me on the head...well, it's
beyond beating now...it's into mauling! *huge grin*

Drat! According to Eilis, Ombudsthing for Ansteorra, part of my argument
against principalities in this Kingdom is a moot point.

Oops! I do stand to learn something every day! Thanks for the correction; now
we have an exact set of examples to look at and ponder!

I never have a problem with being proven incorrect about something this
important. My only wish is for the People of this (and any other Kingdom) to
have access to all the information possible, thus to make a true informed
decision!

Thank you again Eilis, it's good to know that Good folk out there care for what
we need!! Believe me when I say... I remain...

...your Friend and compatriot.

Kief...
