Not sure Pat would appreciate that - there's no firewomen from Venus
messing with the monkey.

Perhaps that's in the X-rated sequel ;-D

Unfortunately (or maybe not) Rand is killfiled; so unless I get the
whole Amazon link address, I'm not going to see what he's referring to.

Yeah, but that link doesn't give me a cut of the proceeds if Pat (or
anyone else) buys one. ;-)

Who did you think of when you saw this?

How Curious George Escaped the Nazis
http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/13/bo...=1&oref=slogin

Of course, the sequel, "Curious George meets Boris in Outer Space and
Other Cold War Stories," owes much to OM!

(Gotta love the man with the yellow hat. And don't forget that H.A.
Rey's "The Stars: A New Way to See Them," revolutionized the way
constellations are presented on star charts.).

I've heard that claim, but I'm surprised at that. I know that
constellations were illustrated on very old star charts with drawings
rather than stick figures, but I would have thought the changeover
took place in the eighteenth century!
