>Ian, you were a folksinger?

Well, only if you don't include the ability to carry a tune or play an instrument as part of the definition. In high school I was a member of a group called The Wendigos, which played various places around Eastern Ontario. The group's name was suggested by our geography teacher, who said it was an Indian spirit. Only later did we learn that it was a cannibal which killed women and children.

We were a folk group by the classic early 1960s definition -- five people who wore the same clothes (red vests, white shirts, black pants) and new all the words to "I Gave My Love a Cherry" and "Puff the Magic Dragon."

Later on I learned about dressing sloppy.
