| I still say we appear to be insecure of our natural superiority when we profess it to each other so fervently in this echo chamber of ours.
that said, epee rocks.

| It's not just epeeists here.... Inq & TRH seem to visit here for the sermons on such a regular basis, that they're considered to be honorary epeeists (although Inq secretly fences epee I think).

It's our way of saying thanks for sticking with epee and not polluting the sabre and foil pools.

| So it seems that we have another honorary epeeist among us. First there was Inq. Then TRH. Now BJ has entered our hallowed halls to pay homage. It's only a matter of time before he starts playing for the other team, heh heh... Hey, little boy, want some candy?
