Thank you, Lloyd. If it comes to you would you be so very kind as to forward
the information on to me?
The description is remarkably poetic even by iris standards--no pun
intended--and seems vaguely familiar. Perhaps a literary allusion? Sounds
rather "Eve of Saint Agnes" doesn't it? I shall have to poke about in some
books.
Thank you Mike and Walta, too.
Does anyone have a current e-mail for Kasperek?
