ES - Hospitaller stuff

[baron at elfsea.ansteorra.org]

Maria, Terric, I'm seeing a lot of interest in your 
line of work these days.  What wonderful things do you 
two suppose could be accomplished between now and, oh, 
the Scottish Festival (for which we still need an 
organizer), with such talented and energetic people to 
help?  Enthusiasm is a terrible thing to waste.
