[Artemisia] Kingdom communication

[Elaine Higgins]

I agree that the AErie needs to be kept!  I find it much easier to use and
respond to than Facebook.  It used to be really informative, but so many
people now use Facebook instead, that it's really disappointing!  I didn't
find out for over a month that Duke Ibrahim had won Spring Crown -- and
still wouldn't know it if a friend hadn't told me in person.  That just
isn't right!  Whoever is running it, please keep it going!  Or if no one
is, then someone needs to step up & do so, soon!  What's so hard about
being on both Facebook and the AErie???
Mst. Iduna,
