RULES OF THE ROAD


1. Do not include large sections of a message in your reply. Especially not to add "Yeah, I agree" or "No, I disagree." Or be excoriated. If someone writes something good and you want to say "good show" please do. But don't include the whole message you praise.
2. Use an appropriate Subject line.
3. Learn the art of paraphrasing: Don't just quote and comment on a point-by-point basis.
4. No anonymous posting, please. Don't say something unless you're ready to stand by it.
5. Do not infringe anyone's copyright. Derivative material belongs on a
website, not this mailing list. Keep quotes from published works short
(less than ten percent of the original text).

Robert Davis asks about the Pharaoh:

>Do we know who he was or where he came from? Has anyone got any
>theories, and what is the best source for reading more? Lokarnos?


Peter:
The only source is an old statement from Greg that he fell out of
the future, which has never been clarified. It seems to conflict
with his thinking about time travel in glorantha, so assuming the
Pharaoh was an actual time traveller strikes me as unsatisfactory.

Rob:

I agree, although I am not against having unexplainable anomalies per se.

Nick (Brooke) posted an interesting link about the Pharoh, but I have a feeling that its going to be 'just don't go there' matter for me.

Regards

Rob
