But then again, I was never told of different English dialects in school here in Germany. I wonder whether Thom Yorke learned the lyrics phonetically or whether he got further than listening to the Roxy version?! Incidentally, doesn't he sing "every salted tear it grinds" (or so?) instead of "wrings"? So maybe Thom Yorke (an excellent singer) was doing a "creative job" with Bryan's lyrics???

Ferry's affection for Dr Who is a reasonable thread, not least because it sheds light on his eccentricity. The man on the Clapham omnibus is wont to regard our Byron as a somewhat precious jewel, forever reclining on rose petal strewn divan, gazing into the middle distance through a haze of floris and opium. Yet, engagingly, much anecdotal evidence points to the old boy entertaining quite mortal pastimes and mildly eccentric interests. I have (Avalon passim) dwelt upon his ownership of the bizarre Morris Minor, an olive-green small car complete with mock tudor beams, and indicators that would have sat comfortably on a Doctor Who cyber-villain. Quirky, but somehow swinging sixties. The white towelling sock mystery, whilst certainly peculiar, was solved on these pages by Avalon-sleuths who spotted the reference to Dirk Bogarde's ankle-wear in The Night Porter and The Servant. We could add the floppy cap, the gaucho rope, the golf (wooden clubs, surely,) the syn-sax on Mamouna, the waders, the defence of Eton, the theft of Andrew Shearer's sunglasses. Pigeon-hole this genius at your peril. Ha!

The bottom line is this: Doctor Who was created to entertain, coins to formualise a system of barter, trains as a method of transport and stamps as a means of funding the postal service. People find entertainment in all four. Which is the most understandable? ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 13:14:23 +0100 From: "sjaak" Subject: [AVALON] Fw: fff serieus - ----- Original Message ----- From: Familie Bruins To: Wouter Corporaal ; Tom & Edith ; thea de jonge ; sjaak ; Richard Schouten ; Paul Wilkinson ; noortje remkes ; mdm.callado.egea@planet.nl ; Linda Schreurs ; Kees Toxopeus ; Kees & Maria ; Jos en Diana van den Bergh ; Jorgen de Jonge ; info@evertsconsultancy.nl ; Familie Vos ; familie Everts ; familie Cleuren ; familie Bruins ; fam.

Deel dit nieuws met iedereen in je adresboek, zodat de verspreiding van het virus kan worden stopgezet. Het is een zeer GEVAARLIJK virus en wordt op dit moment door nog geen enkel antivirusprogramma herkend. Dus niet openen !!! Service Centre Netforce and McAfee Netherland Sent: Sunday, January 07, 2001 10:05 AM Subject: nieuw virus !!! Subject: A new virus has just been discovered that has been classified by Microsoft ( www.microsoft.com ) and by McAfee (www.mcafee.com ) as the most destructive ever! This virus was discovered yesterday afternoon by McAfee and no vaccine has yet been developed. This virus simply destroys Sector Zero from the hard disk, where vital information for its functioning are stored. This virus acts in the following manner: It sends itself automatically to all contacts on your list with the title "A Virtual Card for You". As soon as the supposed virtual card is opened, the computer freezes so that the user has to reboot. When the ctrl+alt+del keys or the reset button are pressed, the virus destroys Sector Zero, thus permanently destroying the hard disk. Yesterday in just a few hours this virus caused panic in New York, according to news broadcast by CNN (www.cnn.com ). This alert was received by an employee of Microsoft itself. So don't open any mails with subject "A Virtual Card for You". As soon as you get the mail, delete it. "VIRUS WITH NO CURE" Please send this information to every person in your Address Book. If you receive an email that reads "Upgrade Internet 2", do not open it as it contains an executable file named "perrin.exe." which will erase all the data in your hard drive and it will stay in memory. Every time you upload any data, it will be automatically erased and you will not be able to use your computer again. This information was published in the CNN Web Site. This is a very dangerous virus. To this date, there is no known anti-virus program for this particular virus. Please forward this information to your friends, so they will be on the alert. Also, check the list below, sent by IBM, with the names of some emails that, if received, should not be opened and must be deleted immediately, because they contain attached viruses. This way your computer will be safe. The titles are: 1) buddylst.exe 2) calcu18r.exe 3) deathpr.exe 4) einstein.exe 5) happ.exe 6) girls.exe 7) happy99.exe 8) japanese.exe 9) keypress.exe 10) kitty.exe 11) monday.exe 12) teletubb.exe 13) The Phantom Menace 14) prettypark.exe 15) UP-GRADE INTERNET2 16) perrin.exe 17) I love You 18) CELCOM Screen Saver or CELSAVER.EXE 19) Win a Holiday (e-mail) 20) JOIN THE CREW O PENPALS ONCE AGAIN, DO NOT OPEN THESE E-MAILS AND PASS THIS INFORMATION ON TO YOUR FRIENDS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 13:05:41 +0100 From: Antoine Bianchi Subject: [AVALON] Someone from "Radiohead"...
