[ANSTHRLD] Star weighs in...

The venerable Star spake:

As I am married to a very old herald of the region and early principality,
also Crown or great officer during creation of many awards, I'll volunteer
both of us if an early perspective is desired. Robin, Serena, if you want
us, contact me offlist, and my work email is better: lewanski_amanda @
bah.com.
