I just got back from some quality time with the kids to discover that
the recent notice in the e-sylum has generated a tempest in a teapot
here. Some clarification is in order:
There is no question that my article on the St. Patricks does not
accept the Lupia chronology and offers the detailed reasons as to why
I think it is seriously flawed. It also gives an alternate
chronology, which is not entirely new, but includes newly discovered
evidence. I would like to emphasize that the article was promised to
CNL well before I learned that I was to be appointed the new editor
of the Newsletter. I promised it to CNL for 3 reasons that seemed
very good at the time:
1) At the time I promised it to CNL, I had been under the impression
that a much larger percentage of C4 members subscribed to CNL. I
didn't think that it mattered one way or the other because I assumed
that the majority of C4 members also got CNL. I mean, why wouldn't
this be the case? The CNL and the C4 Newsletter are really
complementary publications for anyone who wants to be in the know
about colonial coins. Anyway, I am now fully aware of the surprising
numbers of C4 members who do not currently get CNL.
2) As most members of this group are aware, John Lupia and I tend to
butt heads over certain issues. It is no secret. This is unfortunate,
and I am not particularly proud of it, but it is a fact. Therefore,
in the interest of justice and fair play I thought I should submit
the article to CNL because there it would be subjected to the close
scrutiny of such upright pillars of colonial numismatics as Gary
Trudgen, Phil Mossman, Lou Jordan, John Kleeberg, and John
Kraljevich. These individuals would not hesitate to take me to task
if I stepped over the line of politeness or if they thought I might
be barking up the wrong tree. It is because of their great care to
get things right and their untiring interest in helping prospective
authors to come up with the highest quality final published product
that their continued involvement with the CNL editorial process is
such a boon to the journal.
3) The additional discussion in the article in favor of a different
chronology caused me to promise the article to CNL because in the
past it has tended to be the journal of record for this sort of thing.
In any case, Syd and I will discuss things and come to an amicable
conclusion on the best way to proceed in the interests of both the C4
and CNL readership.
Lastly, and perhaps most importantly: I do not play chess.
Tiddlywinks is my game.
Oliver
