<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">All of this talk Re: Heraldry (well, some of it, anyway) has got me wondering whatever became of a little quasi-heraldic project I started back in the Second Millennium, when I lived in the Principality of AEthelmearc. I bought a nicely-bound blank book and added instructions for the reader to add his own personal or group motto and/or commentary on previously-entered mottos or comments, then pass it on. I lost track of it at a Pennsic. I imagined it travelling throughout the Known World.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">I entitled the book AUROCHS (for Alfredo's Unofficial Registry of Collected Heraldic Stuff), and put a picture of an aurochs on the frontispiece.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">Does anyone recall ever seeing it?</FONT></DIV>
