Don Duncan, I'm terribly sorry for your loss but I'm glad that items  
were the only things that were taken. That was a huge investment, and  
it sounds like several of the pieces will be difficult (if not  
impossible) to replace.

This is a tragic but timely reminder to folks: *don't* leave your  
stuff in your car. Many of us -- including the Kingdom -- have lost  
irreplaceable SCA items that way.

With condolences and hopes for a speedy recovery of your stuff,
Michael Silverhands
