Yes.

If anyone (who is a Duke) wants to do this and doesn't want to post to
the discussion list that they might be doing it, feel free to let me
know personally and I will be sure to 1) not let anyone else know and
2) keep you informed on how many Dukes we have that will be doing it
(although not which Dukes if they choose to remain anonymous).

Well, if enough of these happen, I'm hoping politics on the island
will get interesting enough that the new realms will potentially have
new allies and we can make the island a little less polar.
