but....Re: Treasure Trove of Esrolian Info

OK, great though the site is, a couple of disclaimers:
- It is all unofficial. Of course fan sites generally are, but I
don't think Greg speaks French, so I'm pretty sure he's never seen any of this material. Ditto with most of the other powers that be I suspect. Which means if the area is ever covered in english it could come out quite differently.

• They have the strange idea that rainy weather is ideal for grain crops. This is interesting when you consider the `bread baskets' of the ancient world were places like Egypt and Sicily, and of the modern world places like the Ukraine or the north American prairies. What all of these places have in common is very high levels of sunlight, mixed with just enough moisture. I'm just going through the site myself, so I may yet find other things that I don't totally agree with, so my endorsement is of the overall site, not all the specific content!
