rainforest is one of those "PC terms that really irritates me. I was corrected a couple years ago when I used the word jungle. Some self-important fop told me that it is now more appropriate to use the word rainforest.

He said it in a way that almost implied that jungle was negative term as if I was saying wop or mick.

This person, of course, had never been in a rainforest, and I was hosting an informal lecture on my 4 months in the jungle of Belize in 1988 working on the team that was reclaiming the Maya city of Caracol from the jungle.


jimlad - not sure what we can do for you. These's an outside chance that someone will look at this thread who owns the cd in question, but other than that, I don't know. Most of those types of cds are produced in lots of 10 to 100 thousand and sold through whatever outlet (not usually a music store) until they're sold out or until the store managers get tired of looking at the display, send the cds back to the distributor and eventually the over-stock is destroyed.
