Aah, Virginia....would you like to know why Rich's sainted mother fed him Finnan
Haddie?
Because she was born and raised in Alberta, which you likely know, was named for
Prince Albert! And is still pretty British, even if they do have about 50% Yanks
there (oil field, ya know)! Anyway,  Rich has another claim to the British
Empiah!!!, in that his BW(beautiful wife)has also Canadian roots, being born in
my home province, Ontario, which her parents left and moved to California, as
did my parents....I, however,  left a little gal back in Toronto and so I
returned to Toronto.....the rest, fifty three years later, is, as they say,
History! Ours!! Cheers, Doug in BC
