Stag told us about Uncle Phil's award, and about Belfast, Hockey, and Civil
War ...

Last weekend a national sports program on CBC Radio had a feature story
about the growing popularity of Hockey in Belfast.  The Belfast organizers
are making a so-far-successful effort to keep Catholic-Protestant frictions
out of this sport.  One of the ways they do this at the Belfast arena is by
refusing admittance to anyone wearing a Soccer jersey.

ps:  Which Civil War?  Were you there as a referee or a player?  Is that
where the Duel system came from? ;-)
