Well, seems I didn't really specify to whom your response should be directed,

they let the trains theme go to pot....

(...) "Not at all" what? You said "if the guy in charge asked what I would think" and I told you what I would say. Are you now speaking FOR this hypothetical person? (...) We'll see. We'll just see what we shall see. ++Lar (26 years ago, 11-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
