[TheForge] Teaching blacksmithing and insurance

When in doubt, ask Lloyd's of London- those folks will insure anything.

Saint Phlip,

"When in doubt, heat it up and hit it with a hammer."
 Blacksmith's credo.

 If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is probably not a
cat.

Never a horse that cain't be rode,
And never a rider who cain't be throwed....
