Wonderful...thanks for the notification. How about women in coal-mining? Anything forth-coming on that subject? -- Regards, Bruce Kennewell, Canberra, Australia. --------------------------- <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9092b0$qk6$[email hidden]... > The December issue of Distant Thunder, your newsletter about women in > racing, is now online at: > > http://thunval.com/racing > > We're featuring our Driver of the Month, Karen Salvaggio, and Race > Reports from the Las Vegas WGGT race by Belinda Endress and Terri > Hundertmark. > > There's a lot happening at Thunder Valley.

Bruce, Well, you asked for it (albeit obliquely). Here's the Earl of Shaftsbury, speaking in Parliament in June 1842, shortly after a government report of children and females in mines (good old free trade!): In the West Riding, it appears, girls are almost universally employed as trappers and hurriers, in common with boys. The girls are of all ages, from 7 to 21. They commonly work quite naked down to the waist, and are dressed - as far as they are dressed at all - in a loose pair of trousers. These are seldom whole on either sex. In many of the collieries the adult colliers, whom these girls serve, work perfectly naked. Near Huddersfield the sub-commissioner examined a female child. He says, `I could not have believed that I should have found human nature so degraded. Mr Holroyd, and Mr Brook, a surgeon, confessed, that although living within a few miles, they could not have believed that such a system of unchristian cruelty could have existed.' Speaking of one of the girls, he says, 'She stood shivering before me from cold. The rug that hung about her waist was as black as coal, and saturated with water, the drippings of the roof.' `In a pit near New Mills,' says the sub-commissioner, `the chain passing high up between the legs of two girls, had worn large holes in their trousers. Any sight more disgustingly indecent or revolting can scarcely be imagined than these girls at work. No brothel can beat it.' ---- --David "Bruce Kennewell" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Don't mind these guys. We enlightened males enjoy reading about the fairer sex putting their foots to the proverbial floor. ::) In article <9092b0$qk6$[email hidden]>, [email hidden] wrote:

Being a proper name, and one that I'm not familiar with, I certainly wouldn't have recognised the error. -- Regards, Bruce Kennewell, Canberra, Australia. --------------------------- David Karr <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:90b1c9$nid$[email hidden]... > Oh, good!

No....just one that works with an awful lot of them!
