The name seems right, and the description I heard seems about right, so Australian listeners could be in for a treat, as the ABC docos are usually of a very good standard. - ------------------------------------------------------- "She moved through the garden in glory, because She had very long claws at the end of her paws." by Richard Garnett shepherd@mail.act.apana.org.au Groping sheep in Australia's capital since 1992 Australia, beta testing the year 2000 for your convenience - --------------------------------------------------------------- + To unsubscribe, send an email to: majordomo@valinor.eldar.org with 'unsubscribe monkey' in the body of your message + Need help?
