OK, this was the CD version, so at only 650Mb it can't be as comprehensive as the seventeen ton four mile long Real Thing, but it's a reasonably common word and bloody well should have been in there. -- David Cantrell | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david/ Rip, Mix, Burn, unless you're using our latest and greatest operating system which we couldn't be arsed to complete

Re: More Natives
On the one hand, they are just kids - we've all been in the land of clouded thought, strange urges and akward changes. However you got to wonder if these young men are not being lulled into a warped sense of security behind their computer screens. In the real world, would dk and Chris really start shouting and throwing the toys around if David had inadvertently stepped on their egos? I blame their parents for letting them loose on the Internet.

I used to see bk and his ilk when I used to go to Hereford - they were hanging around outside the McDonalds wearing Adidas tracksuits and trying to bum cigarettes off the soldiers.
