[Sca-cooks] Pennsic Chirurgeon fiasco

[Stefan li Rous]

<<< I don't know anything about it, not having attended Pennsic, nor  
ever
having
been a Chirurgeon.  I find it interesting and informative when such
issues come up, but don't feel qualified to comment on them.
--Maire, from the sidelines >>>

Which is true for many of us, even if we were at that Pennsic. That  
is why I am seeking to put together a file of information, so that  
folks not directly involved now, and those in the future, can have an  
idea of what the issues were and how things happened.

I am not a Chirurgeon and have only a limited interest in the  
technical aspects of this problem. I am much more concerned about how  
the situation was handled, at both Pennsic and how the information  
has been (or not) released since then. I'm also quite willing to  
admit that the information I have so far been able to obtain is  
somewhat one-sided. Unfortunately, I can deal only with the  
information which I can get access to. That is the reason that I'd  
really like to see the reports, even with personal info ex-purged,  
upon which the decisions at Pennsic were based. If folks have  
comments on this case, with supporting documentation, I would love to  
have them for inclusion in my future Florilegium file.

As Hrothny requests though, back to fish sauce and other foods.

Hmmm. Maybe those that think things are fishy should send the Lord  
Mayor and others bottles of period fish sauce. :-)
