SR - The Bonwicke/Shadowlands dilemma

[Jan Van Zandt]

We can easily end up with too many chiefs and not enough indians.  We 
need someone to be in charge of these decisions.  I am referring to 
someone who can impartially act as a clearing house for arrangement 
decisions; not make principality decisions.   Tivar has done an 
excellent job of moderating, but the most logical person to watch over 
and direct this action is the Souhern Regional Seneschal, Kief.  I 
believe he has expressed a willingness to do this.  SOMEBODY has to be 
in charge, otherwise everyone gets stepped on toes, bickering ensues and 
the our efforts will fall apart.  What do you say Kief?  HLady Jan
