Wow, some days I love the SCA. Actually what we need for Pennsic is some
sort of lantern in which we can light Shabbat candles, it should handle
at least 6 candles and have glass sides to give light.

That way my wife and step daughters can light their Shabbat candles
without them blowing out. 

I love the people I meet in the SCA, while some do drive me nuts, the
number who just make me sit up and say "What a Mench" is so high.
