A Thief of the Rogue class does have access to Knowkledge skills but then the whole point about literacy comes up again. Also if we take that route a theif with the Rogue PC class is a bit more than a common street urchin and has probably spent sometime amongst merchants (perhaps trying to con them), abroad (as an adventurer even) or with some other 'special organisation' that gives them access to a broad base of knowledgeAnyway the point is - Knowledge:Local is NOT Bob the Comoners intimate familiarity wit' Bogside Meadow and allwithin 1 mile radius (because Commoners don't have Knowledge on their class skill list)its knowledged picked up by literate persons who probably have access to broad knowledge base from around the known world</blockquote>
