    Thanks for the heads up, I'll definitely try to catch that. I love shows like that anyway and this is a great topic.

    Brandon: Thanks for letting us know. I'm looking forward to it.

    I think Sir Walter Scott should have the last word ...

    Oh what a tangled web we weaved,
    When first we practised to deceived. ;)
