Actually I said that, not Eugene. Could you guys take a bit more care when
forwarding across lists please. Thanks. :)

Let me see if I've got this straight - my message on extropians was
forwarded by Eugene to the MURG list, Randal replied (thinking it was
Eugene), and Eugene relayed it back to the extropians list.

Looks like all we need to do is add a blood-stained knife, a missing person,
and an empty safe, and we'll have a nice little whodunnit murder mystery!

Thanks for the references anyway Randal. :)

Regards,
Dale Johnstone.
