Sorry, Ras, modern libraries are as modern as anything else.

Hey, if your group can get along without outside community involvement,
then being completely disassociated from the community is fine. (Of
course, it gets a little hairy if you run into the guy who is telling
Police Departments the SCA is a military cult.) However, I'm curious: how
did your group manage to buy its own site? (Because we have to maintain
connections with the community in order to be able to get sites.)
