I just saw this and thought it might be of interest. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8467870.stm  Possible remains of 10th century Princess Eadgyth found in German Cathedral.

How cool!

Erika- I do, too. I thought about majoring in it in college, but I was afraid it'd be one of those things where I'd have a hard time getting a job. Practicallity won out in the end, and that's never fun.

Exactly, Arika.  That's why I didn't major in it in college :P

This is very interesting! If you like this, you should sign up for the newsletter that Mimi, I'm pretty sure it was Mimi, told us all about a while back. These emails are full of the most interesting things.

Let me go see if I can find it again!

Colleen, if you were not so busy defending the downtrodden and bringing justice to the world, you would have time to write that book! Really, what is more important?!

Quit the job and write books for us!! :-D
