SC - WAS-primary sources (long)

[William Lyon]

As a feast-o-crat I have never been offended if someone has brought their 
own food to the table, I have been doing this long enough that I completely 
understand that some people do not want to bother the feast steward just to 
accommodate them except in some circumstances.  Am I an exception or do most 
never get allergy reservations for their feasts?
