Hi there!
1. I'm from Portland, OR, USA
2. Way back in childhood, with Sunday School, and later in Middle School with western civ classes. Not to mention Saturday Afternoon TV matinees!
3. I'm here to learn, of course!
4. I'm an amateur hobbyist. I collect swords, and have a few repro gladii and spathae (some more accurate than others...). I've been interested in reenactment, but have never had the time or money (not to mention some physical problems, none of which are insurmountable, but they make things kind of problematic)
Anyway, I've been lurking for a while, and thought it high time to "show up". (Besides there are some folks here I recognize from "other" fora)
