Never thought i'd be doing this......but i think Art has been around the
list long enough and has made so many excellent contributions that he
may be excused a little absurdity from time to time: in recent times the
Flying Pig contingent has not been as obtrusive as it once had a habit
of being, and i for one am not going to jump up and down in extreme
agitation (this time at least....) over The Question (and Epitoniidae!)
Man's little pecadillos: he as earned the right, in my books!! (now, if
someone else were to attempt to introduce talking cowries to the list..........)

From the land of the last summer swims,
