Fea: there is now a direct question to Degas in the ending of my last post.

It would be nice if you reacted but if you can't, I can just delete those two last lines. Whatever you wish.

It's not just you, Nogrod - we Americans, too, have Hamburgers and Frankfurters...though I personally have never heard of a Berliner foodwise.

Well to many of us here in Scandinavia at least it's a greasy doughnut with a melt pink-coloured sugar topping...

Or a sausage... back in the seventies.

JFK: "Ich bin ein Berliner."

Literal translation: "I am a jelly doughnut" (the way to say what he wanted would have been "Ich bin Berliner).

And naturally, only Americans who knew the ins and outs of German grammar cared.

...As you were.

Nice to see you back around Nerindel! If you have any complaints on how Matrim is used while you have been away, please let us know. They can be changed - unless it is old enough and has consequences with the basic storyline and thus is being past redeeming (not that I remember there being such instances further back there).
No its all fine as you will no doubt see, Matrim and Balvir have been pretending to be that which they are not. That is now about to change they are going to be forced to be themselves once more.

Durelin, Foley : Matrim is not at drill, I'm not sure if Ceon would realise this but Thornden should, also Balvir is a captian and a seasoned soldier of Ithielien and as such should have no trouble with anything the new commander throws at him.
