Their Majesties got Cian pretty good. He was called up during the opening ceremonies, and His Majesty talked about there being unfinished business from Pennsic.
He then described Cian's feats of derring-do on the Pennsic field in great detail, finishing with "We have a special award for this."

Cian fell in hook, line, and sinker. He was sure he was about to get a Sword of Calontir. He didn't notice Sir Riik, his knight, creeping stealthily up the center aisle...
Then His Majesty said, "But that's not why you're here," and Sir Riik chimed in begging the boon. Cian was completely blown away. It was fun watching that one from behind the thrones

Bruce Wilson of Provo, Utah thought on 10/20/2004 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"No enhancement here. I got the blue by shooting this toward the end of an overcast day. The blue skylight was quite rich, and the darkness helped me get a long exposure (about 1/3 to 1/2 second)." 5832

Dorde Woodruff of SLC thought on 5/30/2004 that this photo was good and added the following:
"This plant is commonly misidentified, even in floras. It isn't S. whipplei but rather S. parviflorus, first named in the 30s by Clover and Jotter on a river trip, in the Grand Canyon. S. whipplei grows on the Navajo reservation and thereabouts in Northern Arizona, is globular unless very old, smaller, and has yellow flowers. " 4426

Bruce Wilson of Provo, Utah thought on 2/23/2004 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"I shot this about 10 minutes before sunrise from the balcony at Bryce Point. The haze is from a large fire burning about 20 miles to the north, which settled into the valleys during the still night." 7317

Eric Carlson of Crooks thought on 7/28/2002 that this photo was very cool and added the following:
"Its always good to see other people interested in the D&I. Bruce - please get with me about a railroad meet we're going to be having in Sioux Falls this November. - See http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SoDakRailFans for details. Thanks!" 3135

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/7/2001 that this photo was 'interesting' and added the following:
"I've always liked this shot, even thought there is a focus problem, and a slight imbalance in the composition. The light that afternoon was perfect, though. Shot outside the Madison SD Prarie Village antique tractor pull and all-around good time, this was the preparation for the ploughing contest. The train in the mid-gound is an old Arco switcher (about 1000 HP) that pulled four cards full of passengers around the site. The silos in the background are a nice reminder we are in the prarie. The shot could be fixed had I waited another moment for the engine to move about eight more feet, creating a line from the silos, thrjought the cab of the engine, to the head of the farmer. And closing down the shutter would have fixed the focus problem. Maybe next time." 3135
