Actually, I think it might be the track listing for SAW III... The tracks titled "??" and "BLOODY HELL" seem to be repated twice? Any ideas on this? Does the CD version really have one more track? _______ (__,-, \ / /\ \ f l u i d /,_) \ \ (/ \\ brit@chopin.udel.edu \) flu'id (floo'-) (thanks to @xmission.com)

I don't particularly want to get drawn in to a technical discussion here about how e-mail works, but these messages purporting to be from Richard James are clearly fakes (in case there was any doubt -- look at the date... ;-). Roy Badami
