My reply is stated above except to add ignorance is in the eye of the beholder. What started out as a solution has been blown way out of proportion. Judge as you wish as I won't loose any sleep over it.you all roll your own cigarettes- I usually smoke a pipe at events, but I have rolled some using cartridge paper a la the zouave on the ZigZag packets
use only wood matches- Yes
no nylon thread in your cotton clothes- Yes, but it's wool, mostly
shoelaces (yikes)- Don't understand what your saying. Shoes had laces.
no candy bars, cough drops, no modern prescription medications- Correct
only cobbler made shoes - Yes
no reproduction firearms - Mine are reproductions, but modern markings removed
no recycled lead for ammo - Again, not understanding
all food foraged and prepared authentically - Correct
no toilet paper on rolls and you surely carry a bar of lye soap just to name a few - Correct
God forbid that he uses something plastic in reenacting - I think he would.
I mean, that is basic reenacting bud. Ignorance is one thing, but doing something you know isn't correct historically is something I don't understand at all.
