*blinks......LOUDLY*A literature contest based on micronational philosophy? Intriguing concept........... Sounds like a challenge to me...... and I like challenges. I must think on this.*walks off, hand rubbing chin in contemplation* ~The Solitary Poet of Delvenus

[Gryphon Avocatio]

In all honesty I was thinking about writing a paper on the political philosophy of micronations before this...but i don't think I'll have the time...You never know...maybe I will...must...get...laptop...working... -Gryphon Avocatio- Anarch and Duke of all Yardistan - Minister of Imigration and Naturalisation, Shireroth - Shirerothian Elder - "Minsiter of Dance, Pants and Funny Walks" - SAVE THE KIWI!!

I hope you are able to, Gryphon. I'm honestly considering writing for this, and it would probably be better for more than one Shirerithian to try it. (sorry, sudden spurt of "patriotism" *winces at word*) But seriously, it would also be good to have some competition. Hope you join. ~The Solitary Poet of Delvenus
