[SCA-BMDL] Bad publicity (not)

[Karen Kasper]

I disagree.  The SCA is much better known these days than it used to be (when I tell mundanes I'm involved, there is a light of recognition now that was not there 20 years ago).  None of the people quoted said anything outrageous, and several pointed out the educational benefits of the SCA.  
   
  We've had a whole lot worse than this, and few better.

In my opinion, this is bad publicity. Even if you agree with the SCAdians 
who are quoted, most of them come across as looney (except Viscount Sir 
Edward and the Simmons College student, who both managed to get some decent 
quotes in).
