I did, actually. It's hard to have a more British upbringing than me without actually growing up in Britain - I can even do some English soccer chants (a sample - when England plays Germany: "Two World Wars and one World Cup / Doo-dah, doo-dah!") It was probably the memories of them that caused me to ask if the Wellington was a boot :-) Gautam __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
