I wanted to also comment to the value of chivalry in the society and 
anywhere that it is found.  Many have stated in the debate about offering 
assistance their many complaints and suggestions, but there is nothing so 
wonderful as when all those wonderful intentions come together for the good.
I will speak of one good gentle who offered his assistance far before this 
discussion began.  At Pennsic I brought two women with me who had never set 
up a pavilion before and one who was 61 years old and in poor health, 
therefore unable to help.  The pavilion was new to all of us and we were 
having a great deal of difficulty figuring it out.  Along came a man who ws 
clearly eager to arrive at the field to enjoy a rapier practice that he had 
scheduled.  He saw our distress and abandoned his own plans and assisted us 
for 7 hours until not only the pavilion was set up, but all the items that 
went in it were safely stored.  His name is Davio de la Rouge of Crannag 
Moor and he seemed even more pleased to be of assistance to us than he would 
have been on the field doing those things for which he had come to Pennsic 
in the first place.  I was even further surprised to find that this was his 
first Pennsic and this was only the second day.
There are many times that people do not do the "right thing" but one such as 
this who does the right thing can wipe out a multitude of others sins...It 
would be nice if we could all do the same for others.

I remain in service to the Dream...
Fiona
