Lucky you, you can just borrow it. I found it in a newsgroup, password
protected by asshole uploader. "Go the the website", yeah right, and
get your computer hijacked or virus-infected. A torrent, March 2009,
pretty old now.

However, WOW HD has it, and I had to figure out something for a rebate
coupon anyway. I've calculated it to less than 18 bucks. They sent the
coupon to celebrate Danish OL Gold. They'll take anything and turn it
into an excuse for sending a coupon! And no postage, only the price of
the item. I like them, I like them a lot. They were forced in the UK
to increase their prices some years ago under a different ownership.
So they just get around it with rebates to celebrate "It's Monday
today, we celebrate it, here's your rebate coupon!" It's not more
far-fetched than what they've already done many times.

BTW, Lawry, "To See If I'm Smiling", 2007, "The story of women who
served in the occupied territories" - do you know that? I'm not sure
whether I have seen it, but I have definitely seen something like that
on tv. Maybe it was that one, but since I can't be sure I've put it on
my list for music/movies etc. to hunt down.
