Peace, just because it's on the internet doesn't make it right. There's no such thing as 'maille'; it's a faux-romantic afectation you will only see written by Americans brought up on sword and sorcery pulp fiction, Dungeons & Dragons and suchlike. No serious historian or antiquarian arms and armour curator would use the word. Period.
Actually just because it's on the internet doesn't make it right. ought to be the BS section battlecry - an awful lot of shit flung around is of the copy and paste variety. What would be rally radical would be to have people posting only what they actually know rather than merely parroting received opinion as 'fact'. That way the music threads would blossom and the BS would wither!
