For Peter Stewart

Speaking only for myself, I just want to say that I don't feel
comfortable criticizing members of this list whose credentials/standing
I don't know the first thing about. I have virtually no access to useful
source material, so can contribute little on that front, but I am very
interested in medieval history and genealogy, so that's why I keep
reading this group, hoping it may someday live up to its potential and
become a genuine "discussion" group.

Peter's participation here has been tremendously beneficial to me. He
often is the only member who replies to my postings (as with the recent
Simon de Montforts thread), and I think his helpfulness and genuine
interest must be self-evident to every reader here. For those who think
otherwise, they are free to hit the delete key (as I often do with a
couple of the posters which I have come to learn will have nothing of
interest to me). That being said I think those who would delete Peter's
contributions without reading them can't be very serious about the subject.

Thank you, Roger. I am indebted to you for raising many interesting
questions and frequently pointing out aspects that I had overlooked. This is
the way a civilised exchange of observations and opinions, on topic, can
help everyone who has a valid reason to follow the newsgroup in the first
place. Your message is very much appreciated.
