Oh, not *again* - give it a rest!
One last word about the sunglasses: From the Merry Rose archive, a discussion about the title "The Honourable Lord/Lady" yielded this - "Your argument suggests that it is futile to attempt to limit the introduction of non-period stuff, so we should not even make the attempt. (...) I don't think it is unrealistic to ask that it not be made *worse* by adding clearly modern elements. That is especially strong when the "rules" clearly mark the proposed practice as "not OK". " *That* is how I feel about sunglasses, sneakers, nylon chairs, cans of coke, and modern items not covered with something. Thank you, Herveus. :)
