<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hey Eadric,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm on just every kingdom list I can subscribe
to and a few out of kingdom ones. I don't really "read" most posts as I
glean the subject lines for interesting items of a personal or historical
interest nature. I only get 3 or 4 hundred posts a day. Hey, if Pug can do it,
so can I. :-) How was war? I saw some rain head that way once or
twice.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I read that as "authorized" myself. And my
interpretation of what was written by Modius is that coporate says that *any*
unauthorized person, adult or child, is no longer to be permitted to "whack" on
a fighter at a demo. But if I were planning a demo, I would definately want to
contact Modius first and just make sure. We have had so many demos where this
was done it seems almost like one of our "traditions" but I certainly can
appreciate the liablility issue.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>You are not an archeologist trying to construct a society that has been
lost. You are a historian who is preserving what is now for the future to learn
about us.The only SCA historians who will be SCA archeologists will be our heirs
if we, as historians today, fail to do our jobs properly.</DIV>

>From this point forward the practice of "Whack-a-Knight" at demos must
end. Going forward, only warranted fighters may take part in combat
related activities at demos. This means you cannot give a rattan
sword to a non-warranted demo attendee and let them hit you while you
are in armor. This comes down from Corporate.

Since we have a little demo this weekend, I thought I had better share
