  I enjoyed listening to that, although the music got to be annoying. I think the speaker should have enlisted Babs to write something more appropriate.
  
  And another random observation: Is it just me, or did the text sound as if it was written to be read by William Shatner? I guess it was the guy's delivery, but it reminded me of a long speech to Dr. McCoy by Captain Kirk -- while they're both being held prisoner on some planet dominated by Christian aliens whose foreheads are shaped like crosses. Don't worry: After the commercial, Spock materializes, gives the Vulcan nerve-pinch to the guard, and the boys fight their way back to atheistic safety aboard the Enterprise.

  OG: That photograph reminds me of Arcimboldo's "The Four Seasons" series which I think I saw in the Kunsthistoriches Museum, Vienna in 1999.
  
  You will like them, I think. See this link to see thumbnails.

  You will see the thumbnails show one of them as being in Vienna and the others at Louvre. I do not recall them from Louvre but that may be due to other reasons, such as Hammurabi's Code, Mona Lisa and the few days over which one sees the whole of Louvre :-)

  Shefaly: I really liked the librarian and the lawyer.
