| Okay, I give up!
I've been resisting joining this group for a long time, because it's so slow on a dial-up connection. But the old rec.sport.fencing newsgroup has been practically dead for the last year, so I give in. Hi, everyone.
Dirk Goldgar,
Epee, foil, and sometimes a little sabre
Bucks County Academy of Fencing |

Welcome. | That implies that I know you, but this interface doesn't reveal "Mr Epee's" secret identity. Care to decloak? | |

| "Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated." ( Obligatory geek reference. )
Although, just try telling an armorer that resistance is futile.
Welcome aboard. | |

| It is futile to resist, first you join thinking "this'll be fun!" Next thing you know it, you're eating Cheetoes and drinking diet cola to stay up until 3:00 or 4:00am to respond to overseas posts in the "RU A Hottie" thread. Leave now! Leave now before the dark side takes your soul!! Goldgar... Mr Epee is your father... 
Welcome

| Hi Dirk! It's funny, starting to post here is like stepping into a tournament in a totally different place, expecting everyone to be strangers, and finding that you know a bunch of people there already. * Neat!
* Which actually happened to me in the first tournament I went to in San Diego. | |

| Inwe,
Aren't you a little young to be up this late on the computer? 
Shouldn't you be out partying, doing drugs, and rebelling against your parents?
