Hi David,
welcome to the list. We might possibly the most lethargic fanlist
anywhere on the net. Terry Draper has released a new album and I can't

commented and discussed at much length to my recollection.
I like your suggestion. It would be truly stunning to have the world
"stand still again". :-)
Cheers
Jens
