Believe me Good Sir, I completely understand your level of frustration.  I 
expect that the regulations may at some point relax to a certain degree (some 
already have).  That said, it is the set of regulations that chroniclers of the 
SCA are presently working under at the moment.  This is something we are 
continually discussing amongst ourselves as chroniclers.  As things are 
discussed, things change, and we hope for the better.  I've made a note of your 
sentiments and will add them to the discussion.

If there are other opinions on the subject, please let me know (both for and 
against).  I can be reached at peacocda AT yahoo DOT com.
