Ever so true, Gianna. What I find very interesting is that the weather has
"decided" what it'll do next -no matter how forecasting models show it
develop over the future. Ie, an easterly that never came is not a "missed
easterly", it is merely an easterly produced in some hardware. Fortunately,
the weather can be -and is- very fascinating!

I was going to mention that Martin. I'm glad I didn't because you did, and
that makes me look less bitter.

I wasn't going to respond but now there are two people who think the
personal habits of the actor have some relevance to the wisdom or
otherwise of words written by the script writer of a film!

It was not *really* his speech you know - the director *told* him to
say it.
