Thanks Bruce! I appreciate your chivalry. Yes, it does still exist - sometimes you still *will* find a shiny silver dollar on your bedside table where your molar once was! I believe so, anyway. After all, what are we all here on this list for if not to leave a lumpy old life in a glass of water at nightfall in the hope that a bunch of flowers will have bloomed there early the next morning? What I'm saying is - if you don't stick your head in a hole occasionally, why, you'll never see a white rabbit with a pocket watch or even a Smurf!
