[Ansteorra-archery] Newest Attack on CA?

[John]

Sir Kenneth, not to worry I knew what you were talking about.  I was 
surprised at how CA friendly Sir Lyonel was from what little I had heard 
about him.  You can blame his squire for that.  I also was very 
impressed on some of his ideas.  I think most of the Ansteorran archers 
realize how many of our knights support us.  Of course there are always 
some who will not or just plain hate us but they seem to be in the 
minority. 

The way that list exploded I don't think any of us had to fully read and 
absorb all of the conversations going on.  I know I got to the point 
were it was a quick skim over things and unless something really caught 
my attention it was hit the delete button time.  I did spend one night 
reading them all and it took almost 3 hours to get thru all of it.  Talk 
about being in the land of confusion.

Honestly aside from one more CA friendly knight I don't think it would 
do much good for you to get on the list.  It does seem to be winding 
done somewhat and has gotten to the point were it is not really worth 
the time.  Unless of course you have the time and feel like getting 
really bored.
