A New Way of Searching

Following up on one suggestion by Alan November, I searched Google for original sources for the Bayeux Tapestry. I entered the country code for France, the location of the Tapestry museum and found the web site (which could be viewed in English). On the site, I found reference to a scholarly conference held last summer at the British Museum, with an email address for a scholar there. While on the Tapestry Museum site, I emailed that web master with questions. No word back from that, but the curator/scholar at the British Museum replied immediately. We are working to set up a Skype session between him and our class next week. He has a current paper on a mystery about the Tapestry and looks to have a sense of humor (keeps chickens with Scandanavian names). This is something.
