Aelfwyn, if you try to lift a truck by yourself, you need to be smarter than
the truck.  Use a car or truck jack, that is what they are for.  It is not
how hard you work, it is how smart you work.

No you aren't saying it can't be done, you are following with what your
landed say, which "sounds" like, regardless of the intended "meaning" that
Northern Ansteorra could not accomplish it, much less anything else.
IMNSHO, it sounds as if you have already decided the grapes are sour, so why
bother.

I'm only asking, why, if we make what we do an enjoyable past time, why
Northern Ansteorra could "not" attain sufficient membership.
