The Tanner Craft's Respose Rumor Post - October 3, 2005

While Ista Weyr has banned organic imports from Xanadu, and Fort has banned grain-based imports, the TannerCraft has taken a slightly different approach.
After a long night, the Craftmaster and the Craftsecond met, discussing the options - the causes of the blight and what response the Tanners should make. Should they follow Ista and cancel all trades with Xanadu that could potentially involve organic goods? Or do they allow the trading relationship to continue until something more solid is shown as to the source of the cereal grain blight?
Though some ideas, such as these issues across Pern signaling the return of Thread despite AIVAS's promise were quickly dismissed, the thoughts of some fungi affecting the grains lingered in the minds of the Tanners, and so they've sought a meeting with the FarmerCraft, to discuss possibly causes and what actions the Tanners should take. In the meantime, talks are continuing - and the current plan of action is to move Tanners to Xanadu, to aid in whatever way they can as Xanadu came through for the Tanners in their own time of need.
