Something to look forward to in June

While I like Frale's writing style, I think she'd be out classed by Nicholson's grasp of overall Templar History.

What's really funny, is if you go to Templar History Forums, and look up Mr Napier's original book cover  (http://www.templarhistory.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3031 ) that was forced on him, before he won the battle of what to put on his cover, you'll see something hauntingly familiar.


As for any other "versus" items.....well.....no contest there. ;) ;D

Absolutely, I couldn't agree with you more on that one.

Daaamn....Is that the best they could do (obviously Mr Napier did) is that the only image available? Helen "come on!" whats with the plates?  I personally know a few individuals that could, and would of volunteered their time to offer her something more fitting.

I shall send her a dispatch and ask her that. I will attach your photo as well.
I remember Gordon talking about what a hassle the printers were, since they have a large say in what it will look like.

I sent him a note about it, and await his reply.

any other versus items?  I know you couldn't possibly be shallow enough to be referring to the physical appearance of these brilliant and knowledgeable ladies....

Not at all...we were refering to one's close proximity to the Vatican...... :P


We can also assume that all is well in the Kingdom of Carolinia by your ability to reply and provoke the Brethren.... ;D

Yes, I was sure you were referring to how Nicholson and Frale cite sources or some other scholarly characteristics as opposed to packaging.   ;)

Only a few inches here...lots of ice. Never fear, as long as I have internet access and the ability to pour a glass of wine draw breath I'll always be able to moderate this Fraternity.

It's never the packaging, for I would fall wanting, hence why I wrap my several hundreds of pounds of chewed bubble gum frame in shiny, pristine white and red wrappings to cover up my flaws.... :D
