Normally, Id've known this was on its way at least a few months in advance. I'm falling down on the job... Losing my touch. Just finished listening to it, and it's absolutely lovely -- very beautifully produced and evocative. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 9 Aug 2006 18:15:30 -0700 From: "Bill Mazur" Subject: Happy Birthday Happy!!! ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V12 #211 ***************************
