Sorry, sounds like you didn't get the 'Life Of Brian' reference there, in
which case that must have sounded very bizarre

Well Steve, as it is Friday in Oz but not yet here in BritLand could I ask
you to post this tomorrow. 
I don't want to get into trouble by posting it now.

Max

In 1986, Peter Davies was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from
Northwestern University . 
On a hike through the bush, he came across a certain age bull elephant
standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so
Peter approached it very carefully. 
He got down on one knee, inspected the elephants foot, and found a large
piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could,
Peter worked the wood out with his knife, after which the elephant gingerly
put down its foot. The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather
curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Peter
stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the
elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Peter never forgot that
elephant or the events of that day. 


Twenty years later, Peter was walking through the Chicago Zoo with his
teenage son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures
turned and walked over to near where Peter and his son Cameron were
standing. The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted its front foot off
the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then
trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man. 
Remembering the encounter in 1986, Peter could not help wondering if this
was the same elephant. Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over the
railing, and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the
elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped
its trunk around one of Peter legs and slammed him against the railing,
killing him instantly. 











Probably wasn't the same effing elephant..

Whereas for me, where it *is* Friday, it is so good, for once, to not feel 
like I must have missed something. :-)

Regards
Steve
