- Good. I did *not* want to check directly with Anne, as I'm not a MUSH

- Thanks for getting her word on this. I've only had it passed down via
- other people who heard 'a long time ago' about Anne's feelings on the
- other colors.

- Incidentally, I don't know much about the internal organisation of the
- MU*s - are you implying that (say) Benden on PernMUSH could use the
- honorifics, and Fort not? I hadn't thought that they were that
- independant. When I said about the offline Weyrs, I was referring to
- seperate organisations, which obviously can make their own rules, but I
- *thought* that PernMUSH was all one organisation. I'm interested...
