   Me no historian, either!   But I have developed a deep feeling   
   for that certain period of history in the Southwest which we   
   commonly refer to as the Spanish Colonial period.  Borderlands   
   are interesting, as are the individuals who tamed them.  It is fun   
   to read more, now that we don't have to go to work outside of   
   home.
