Fox Posted January 16, 2005 Posted January 16, 2005 Well, I've been a re-enactor for 14 years and have studied the maritime history of England in the 16th-18th centuries almost full time for 6 or 7 years, and amaterurishly all my life. I have no problems answering questions, I love to help and we've all gotta start sometime. Next time I have a question about early Byzantium (about which I know more or less nothing) I'll come to you.
