I will have questions about heavy fighting,<BR>> armoring, name and armorial heraldry, and, perhaps mostly, needle and thread<BR>> topics, since I have lots of garb and cloth armor needs. It will be nice to<BR>> have a forum where I'll feel like I can throw out a million questions<BR>> without fear of boring someone or interrupting their own fun free time.<BR>> (I've never had someone make me feel guilty for that, just sayin'.) Is<BR>> there anything I should bring?
