Just that it's the wrong continent, cats are not part of the natural fauna here, nor are the wild fox, rabbits horses and camels and they are all wreaking their own forms of devastation on the fragile local ecologies. Tasmania is the eye opener for Aussies, they have no foxes and the visible the volume of small fluffy native animals compared to the mainland is patently obvious. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://picasaweb.google.com/distudio/PESO http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
