Salvete omnes
Since a long time, I wanted to buy a NR flag. In fact I sent two
emails to senator and current consul Cassius Julianus (on Nov. 14th,
and Dec 18th,2000). Unfortunately I havenīt received any answer. I do
not know who else could answer me If I could buy it (through
international payment). I would appreciate any answer.
Thank you in advance.

Quiritibus salutem
How do I see my role as a Propraetor with regard to the structuring of local sub-rgional organisations? Let me illustrate my preferred method with a true story:
Some years ago, a new college had just been built as an addition to a university campus. In the traditional way, it comprised several college buildings grouped around a grassy quadrangle. It was soon to open for its first intake of students. The Vice-Chancellor and the dons were being shown around the place by the architect. The Vice-Chancellor pointed out that the architect had forgotten to design paths across the quad. to facilitate communication between the college buildings. He demanded to know why the architect had omitted them.
The architect said: "Just as soon as I see the paths that people make by walking across the grass, I will lay the paving in the directions they evidently wish to take."
No derogation intended of Germanicus or of Severus for their choice of paving, but I'd like to see the cives vote with their feet before laying anything down. I know it isn't what some would call leadership, but it's a fair economy of effort, and in its way, no less consultative.
My dupondius' worth.
Bene valete,
Vado.

Salve,
I have responded to all flag inquiries that I have seen. If I have
managed to miss not one, but *two* emails from you, you have my most
sincere apologies!
Nova Roma flags are still available. The ordering information in
the "Macellum" section of the Nova Roma website is still current.
There is no need to contact me to arrange the sale of each individual
flag before actually placing an order. Nova Roma will keep offering
the flags on an ongoing basis, and will reorder more of them the
moment the stock starts to run low. We will not run out of flags
even on a temporary basis.
If this situation ever changes, complete information will be put up
in the Macellum section of the website well in advance. Notice to
this list will also be posted weeks in advance of any changes as
well.
Valete,
Marcus Cassius Julianus

Would anyone know where I could procure a recruitment poster for the
Legion? The one example I saw was years ago but it was beautifully
done and rather period. As to what exact Legion it was, I have since
forgotten. The basic look of it is still in my mind and I would like
to have some brightness to my otherwise drab walls.
All responses to this query are most appreciated.

Salvete,
This is to inform you all that I will be unavailable for probably a week
or more. My wife and I (and our two cats) are moving out of state and
thus I will not likely have my computer hooked up for a number of days
nor have internet access right away. I will probably be able to check
email from a friend's if the mail is sent to palladius@-------- or
to decius.junius@-------- but will not have time to carry on any
kind of lengthy correspondence. I regret this because Moravius has
started up a discussion of Symmachus, a subject that those who know me
know I bring up at the drop of a hat.
I hope people do not mind a brief digression which will be meaningless
unless one read my previous post on the main list and Moravius' reply to
it:
I said that Symmachus was 1500 years dead, he is actually around 1600
years dead. Why I made the comparison in my post is that I can
understand Moravius' heated defense of a friend, someone alive and who
has feelings, whereas I would be taken somewhat aback at a strident
defense of a man who cannot be hurt no matter what we do or say. Of
course, I cannot say how I would react to an attack on the long-dead
senator. Anyway, I unfortunately cannot get into this discussion. I must
get back to packing, only one day left before we pick up the U-Haul and
load it up.

Ave pater conscripti, quirites, Piscinus et Sulla,
I'm writing to say that I may not be available or able to perform my
duties as scriba for the next two to three days, nor will I be on-line
often.
The reason for this is that after a visit to my doctor today, I was
told that I had what he referred to as "Partial Temporary Spot
Blindness", from poor safety equipment I was supplied with during work
I was doing. As a direct result, I will be absent for the next few
days at most.
I have been advised to limit to extreme minimum all computer usage, so
forgive the brevity of this post. The radiation emitted from the
monitor hurts my eyes, and makes it difficult to see.
I hope to be back in the flow again as soon as may be. Until then,

At the request of my province, I have retired the NR_Rockies

less centric on a specific region of the province. All
members of the NR_Rockies list are now members of both.
It is my intention to keep only NR_Austroccidentalis active
and to maintain NR_Rockies as an archive of discussion

I would like to take this time to make a public apology to Lucius Aetius Dalmaticus for the following comments I made to him: "I come from the ranks, and it is known impatient officers get men killed." I made these comments in response to a post that I felt insulted me. After talking to Lucius Aetius Dalmaticus, it became clear that it was I that was impatient, and I would like to take this time to apology to him and ask that he forgive me for making such immature comments to a person that has seen the true face of war. I only ask that he accept my apology and understand that I have much to learn concerning leading men at arms. Lucius Aetius Dalmaticus, will you forgive me for my totally uncalled for comments? If not I will understand, from one military man to another.

Actually for a while in 1999 they were being used. As far as why they're not
being used now, I'd say it's probably a matter of convenience, numbers being

I've been working with the data as given to me and have no awareness of tribal
names to know I should be asking the question about it.
It IS easier to work with numbers, but there's no reason we couldn't display
both as far as I see. For the purpose of the Rogator it's more practical to
work with the number but the name could also be displayed in the Album Civum as
far as I'm concerned.

If someone will send me a list of tribe names and which numbers they
correspond to, I can add the name to each citizen's Album Civium page.
This change would be for display purposes only -- internally, the
database and the voting software would continue to use the numbers.

Ooh, a mild difference of opinion between Propraetor and Procurator. We'll

First, a comment on the anecdote. Can appreciate the sentiment but a wrankle
from a very personal point of view. No criticism towards you, Vado. Comes

Typical bloody architect! Any path, even if it isn't straight, is better than
no path for some people (providing it's constructed out of the right
material!). It can be just as easy to move a path after it has been laid.
I'm wondering though whether citizens will be proactive enough in organising
or would they prefer to have a model to follow? Groups of cives already have
informal gatherings but where next? To my mind there seems a huge gulf
between Governors and their deputies and the cives provinciae because there
is nothing formal inbetween them at present.
Even if the 'path' isn't great, at least it's laid out and lighted rather
than them slipping in the mud in the dark.

When I first constructed my counting forms, I used the
names, but then the test ballots came in as numbers,
so I switched to numbers. This ex-rogator has no
problem with changing, but the guy who really needs to
