Well - I'm exagerating a bit - when I meant are they for real, I was hinting that there was something staged about it all - and, well, phoney. ( Later, Paul explained what was going on.) Part of scary was kids sitting up on the back of the car - so I guess I should have realised it was a parade of some sort. The driver and passanger look like people in THe Truman Show Now that i know they were just dressed up for the fun of it it changes it quite a bit. For myself, if it were a dress up parade, I wouldn't I probably would not have found it interesting enough to photo - exept, perhaps, as a gig of reporting on that scene... so I guess I felt Paul was making the same comment I would have made - yikes!. Because we are, in a way, back in the 50's. alas. But lets not go there. ann
