[Ansteorra] Dissolutions..pop numbers..

[Eadric Anstapa]

Elizabeth, you are being overly defensive and reading more into my 
message than what I actually wrote.  I was simply pointing out that the 
healthy of a branch is about more than just raw numbers or officers on 
the roster.  There are more factors that have to be considered.

I never wrote that I knew, felt, or had any opinion on the relative 
health of any of the branches involved.  Only that there were other 
factors that had to be considered.

Regards,

-EA
