A Conversation for The Royal h2g2 Historians Society

Hello Members!
I've had a little idea. The Post is on the look out for new features and what-not.
How would people feel if the Historical Society started a regular column in the Post? My idea was for members to contribute a little feature about their favourite historical events or people. Sort of following an interview format and calling it Keeping Up With Dr Jones (an Indy reference there, sorry couldn't resist).
I'd interview the Historical Society Members about their interest in history by email, then collate it into a form for the Post. Much like KB's Working Stiff's segment, or Mr Inquisitor, but about history, with the hope that it may spark discussions/EG Entries/friendships 
If people think it's a good idea, let me know, and if anyone's especially keen I'll interview them first 
Or if indeed anyone has different ideas that they feel could work to get some historical discussion happening
Matt

I'd love to! Sounds like a great idea - plus it'd make a change for me to be interviewed...

Oh, good - I appear to have passed the secret stringent test. I presume it was my ability to type 'Can I join?', right?

I don't have many favourite historical events or people, but I have lots of favourite historical places.
