For my part Jeff, I would like to thank you for taking the time to set Glorantha scale and 3rd age timeline against historical settings. which may help people get a grasp of travel times etc, which was always an issue when I played a lot.
If people don't feel comfortable with the "official" scale, or any other aspect of Glorantha as it evolves, then "YGMV"
