THE GAME: HISTORY
LE JEU : HISTOIRE
|
The debate continues !
When ICING first went on-line, we included a brief history (#1, below) of curling. We
quickly received a number of messages about our information, some agreeing with our facts
and others disputing them. Since then the comments have continued to come in, and all we
have to say is .. "How the hell did we manage to stir up this hornet's nest?"
To get ourselves out of this mess, we have decided to include in our site any legitimate
(published by a reputable printing house) history that is forwarded to us. You viewers may
then look over each one and make your own decisions.
If you strongly support one particular description, you may wish to present your reasons to
the Curlers' Mail List at listproc.bgsu.edu or to the Curlers' News Group at
news:rec.sport.curling . (If you are not familiar with these Discussion groups, check the
procedures at Curlers' Connections.)
If you have other substantiated evidence to offer about the background of the game and you
want to have it included in this page, please send your material through any of the addresses
at the bottom of this page.
ICING reserves the right to evaluate and accept/reject, without notice or explanation, any
items submitted!
