Yes! That was exactly the joke I was aiming towards, along with the
irony of a medieval recreation society misspelling their own era.
Here's a favor for a favor: do you know what you call a group of
solitary witches? Craft singles.

Run my name through your computer
Mention me in passing to your college tutor
Check my records, check my facts
Check if I paid my income tax
Pour over everything in my C.V.
But you'll still know nothing about me.
