[Sca-cooks] Cooks within the SCA

[Elaine Koogler]

I appreciate your trying to attribute a positive reason for his rudeness,
but that was not the case.  What I didn't say was that he did indicate that
he stayed only so that he could serve high table.  He also stated that this
held true for his entire household.  His entire attitude and tone of voice
indicated that his feelings were far from being altruistic.

Sorry.
