medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear all,
I am back from a few days away and, thanks to John McChesney Young, who thoughtfully wrote to me at my (daily used) Dartmouth account, I have learned to spamming in my name. My apologies to all who have been inconvenienced or irritated. I will close this account forthwith. Especial alert of thanks to John, without whom I'd have not known for some time more.
