Greetings fellow Atlantians....

Just as a word of caution, if you truly want your voice heard (or SCA 
rapier's voice heard) in a positive light by the sport fencing community, 
Nick Evangelista may not be your best bet.  He has some pretty significant 
negative buzz in the circles I run in in the sport world.  I have never met 
him myself and am sure he's a fine fellow, but just keep any of your 
objectives in perspective with the engine you're planning on using.  If you 
just want to get an article published in a magazine that focuses on 
classical fencing, then you're probably ok :).
