Let me add my own "good onya," Peter--and the poem's quite
wonderful (nice to see the tomahawk in poetic action!)--Candice
P.S. On another Brit-twisted-American front, I highly recommend
Mark Knopfler's new solo release (out yesterday), _Sailing to
Philadelphia_. The title song, to which James Taylor contributes
additional vocals (note this, Erminia), is an imaginary duet
between Jeremiah Dixon and Charles Mason (of _that_ Line, you
know)--"a Geordie and a baker's boy" who sail from England and
find themselves "among the Iroquois." Other good cuts, including
the one that's getting some radio play here "What It Is," "El
Macho," and "Do America" (with additional vocals by Van Morrison)
similarly give a Brit-rocker's-eye view of the US (much as
Knopfler's 1996 solo CD, _Golden Heart_, did of France).
