thread...<BR><BR>Thank you Your Excellency David...you honor me with your
suggestion... However, I feel that it would lessen the hard work given by
all those folks that have made the new site the shining jewel in the
firmament of Ansteorra... I did not have a hand in it's development... I
respectfully decline...<BR><BR>My suggestion, a slightly different tack on
the Raven theme...<BR><BR>Corvus Fields...Corvus Hurst, or Wood, or Glade,

ravensfort@lists.ansteorra.org<BR>> Subject: [Ravensfort] Just a
thought...<BR>> <BR>> I've always thought it important that we never
forget our history. Our Baronial history is something that holds us
together, and we should find ways to honor it.<BR>> <BR>>
So...<BR>> <BR>> Pardon the butchery in spelling but Sir Kief's full
name is something similar to Kief av Kierstad von Arenvald. I was thinking a
suitable honor to our first noble cousin might be a name for the 2nd site as
something like Arenvald Field. ("field" being only a convienent suggestion).
<BR>> <BR>> Arenvald means something like "Eagle Ruler," as I
recall.<BR>> <BR>> We'd have to ask his thoughts. There's pros and
cons, but there you go. <BR>> <BR>> Yo homey,<BR>> David St
