Ummmm, you know that you can put multiple recipients on the "To:" line, separated by semicolons, don't you? In fact, it says that right about what I'm typing at this very moment.

No need for multiple posts.

Most people would be surprised at the lightness of a well-made sword.

I like guns, but a sword is the spirit of a warrior.

Okay, guys, I confess...I used to think that claymores and other medieval battlefield swords were humungo-heavy, but I've seen the light. Y'all don't have to convince me of it any more, okay? For the record, battle swords of any era weighed six pounds, tops.

Okay?
