No, I was just trying to establish under what conditions you blow up,
based on experience.
I know all these things about Canada. I drove from Vancouver to
Calgary, then south, then hitched from Niagara Falls to Rivière du
Loup to New Brunswick to Maine. And Canadians say <h&us> and <&is>
for "house" and "ice"?
Also we get South Park here. Give my best to Terrence and Philip ;-)
