Exploratory tangent: What does precise spelling matter, if the meaning is clear? Did you think I was referring to a different breed, perhaps different species, other than Dalmatians. like those tanzanian birds the "Dalmations" (a made up species). And did you think I was not referring to a horse, despite the prior horse contextual reference, and that I was perhaps referring to something other than a palomino horse -- like perhaps a palamino olive? :) To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
