Stefan, i haven't double checked, but the typo could very well be my 
fault. My computer mouse is malfunctioning, making it harder for me 
to fix errors (and getting a new mouse, cheap as it would be, will 
necessitate upgrading my whole computer set-up, which i cannot afford 
to do at the moment). Given the work you do to put all that useful 
discussion into the Florilegium, there's no way you can double-check 
for content, grammar, and spelling.

If anyone is using the Florilegium for info, i fell it is up to the 
user to double check things and verify them.

I love the Florilegium and find it immensely useful for many topics, 
but all SCAdians need to remember that the information represented in 
the topics there are "works in progress" by us experimenters, and 
not, generally speaking, vetted scholarly documents (although there 
are certainly some amazing exceptions).

I use it to give me ideas, stimulate thoughts and questions, give me 
practical information for making or doing things, and get me on track 
for research. While most of the time it does not really substitute 
for real research, this comment in no way diminishes the value of the 
Florilegium. Believe me, i missed it terribly when it was "down" and 
cheered quietly when i discovered it was BACK!

Words are not enough to thank you for your efforts in this amazing 
project. ALL SCAdians owe you a huge debt of gratitude.
