(aka Joe in Connecticut) Checking back after a while, this Guest is pleased to see some fine Nominations to fill the hellish Vacancy, and seconds them all. Although considering the UK heritage & vintage of my ancient BBC recollection, I had half-expected an old-crocks-like-me nominations Crossfire of (From the Right!) Harold Wilson! and (from the Left!) Maggie Thatcher! However, all named candidates are well qualified.

to Tom French (a bit nervously; what if he's not joking?): HAHAHA LOL sure, I'd shake hands on the bargain! But, uh, whadda I do about them there cloven hooves....?

to Gwi: Hm good point; maybe it IS "deveel". But me, I'll stand with Bobbie Burns: The De'il's awa' wi' th' Exciseman.

and to IanB (like I said, God Bless England): hee hee Yes indeed, what a fine circular nonanswer from John Mayall's people. Reminds me, in turn, of this one from the DT listings:

CONFUSING GRACE (Unitarian Hymn) (Dick Greenhaus)

Confusing grace, so rich, so rare Each day we live, we learn; And offer daily all our pray'r To whom it may concern!

Thanks, Mudcatters, for the good commentary. --Joe in Connecticut
