BTW - "Arch" in this case would mean "ruler", from the Greek "arkhi". Think "monarch" and "anarchy".

The PC crowd is essentially a bunch of pussies who want to control everyone's speech because they can't stand to hear anything that might disagree with, or might challenge them. It is, I think, a fusion of postmodernism and cultural Marxism being preached in universities and the inevitable result of the self-esteem movement of about 15, 20 years ago.

I'm excited too! I hope to get a copy before EasterCon so Jim can sign "StormFront", "Furies of Calderon" and "Aeronaut's Windlass" for me. *bounces*
