True, I gathered that Mairi had a problem with giving Fred any more credit
than he was due.  There are people who don't like Fred and resent that he
has so much control over Troll.  I like him a lot and find him very easy to
get along with so I guess I was being a little defensive. Please forgive me
if I misread.

Your point is made however, in all of the pre-pennsic meetings and at
Pennsic all of the Coopers treated him as if he was in charge, second only
to Dave Cooper.  So I guess it doesn't matter what you call him, they think
he is in charge, partnership not withstanding.
