Of course you are a role model... we all want to grow up to be 
Jadwiga... Forthright, knowledgeable, frequently calm... *G* I think 
people were taking it personally, and I don't think you meant that. 
There had just been a competition, you had just been reading 
documentation, ergo you "must" have been speaking about that...

I have to confess, I'm using a lot of internet sources, especially for 
cooking. I'm on a very tight budget right now, and cooking is not my 
primary art. (If you think cookbooks are expensive, or hard to get, try 
obscure textile references... The aforementioned money I've thrown at 
Devra has all been for textile books.) The wonderful thing is the vast 
array of transcriptions of original sources now available. I'm working 
with that.
