Paul,

"He mea iki, iā'oe ē No'ilālahalaha," (It is a but small matter, dear 
No'ilālahalaha), says your kindly kahuna, "manawa kūpono," ([it is a matter 
of] due sentiment).  Yet, he insists to know if you are serious about the 
garment, and he sincerely hopes to see a likeness of you wearing it (or else 
he will demand that you record your voice saying your newly bestowed name of 
honor ten times at rapid speed).

Dear Lowlanders,

Your kindly kahuna wishes to announce that the Hall of Honor has been 
completed, and he invites you to visit it: 
http://www.lowlands-l.net/treasures/kahuna.htm

All names of honor bestowed thus far are displayed there, and new ones have 
been added for those deserving them.  In other words, there are new 
inductees.  Please see if you are amongst them.  If you are not and believe 
you ought to be, your cases and pleas will be graciously heard and 
considered.

Each name is worth at least ten gold stars of old currency.

Being a considerate man, 'Ōlelo Kai 'Ākau displays only the names of those 
known by the entire community.  The few members of distinction that hide 
within the shadows of anonymity will receive their names of honor in 
private.

The current anniversary project (http://www.lowlands-l.net/anniversary/) is 
a golden opportunity for all to work toward earning *their* names of honor.

Ā hui hou aku!
Reinhard/Ron
