I had to insert two corrections here - Sorry
Steve sez:
>Well maybe a year ago on this list there was an exchange about some

I say:
Steve, Do you mean that your description of the exchange was a hoax (i.e.
never happened)
or that the discussion which did happen was a hoax, or that the person
claiming to to have
signed books was pulling a prank, or that TRP only pretended to sign the
books, or he used his left hand when he really right handed (or the
reverse) or that he had the books and wasn't really selling them, or that
it wasn't really for charity - I'm confused - I need more data - Daisy,
Daisy, give me your
answer do, Daisy, ****Daaisy, D  a  i  s y, Dave, I'm afraid ***...

By the way, didn't CNN broadcast some video ***of Lady Diana*** dancing
around in her
underwear last Oct.?
And a few days later didn't they have to explain that the videos were a hoax?
