gurdymonkeyI was watching a preview of the new Ken Burns series on the National Parks (premiers on PBS this fall) and they excerpted a quote by a painter named Chiura Obata with one of his paintings. With the wonder of Google, I immediately began searching for more:

Whether she realizes that some of the stuff on her wish list already exists in some form or other on the internet, courtesy of various SCA contributors (including myself). A good 80% of it is already on Sengokudaimyo.com already.
How many articles she plans to research and write, since the rest of us are obviously slacking.
Is it a bad idea? Not necessarily, however, it will require a lot more work than I think she realizes. And there's that bit where some of it does already exist if one bothers to go and look for it.
