Rick, Here in England we have had at each general election and by election a candidate by the name of Screaming Lord Sutch, aka David Sutch, His party was called "The Monster Raving Loonie Party" and his proposals were "Lead Free Pencils," and "Christmas twice a year" and "Treadmills in every village and town for joggers to generate electricty for old people". Needless to say he never got elected. He used to show up at elections in a gold top hat and leopard skin coat and according to Guinness holds the record for loosing elections and deposits most times. He was however a rock singer in the 60s and hat hit records with "Jack the Ripper" and "She's fallen in love with a monster man" He brought humour and colour to an otherwise sombre occasion but I often wondered what he would have been like if he had won and become prime minister. Probably not much diferent to the other monster raving loonies we have at the moment. Cheers Bill
