I have no experience with that book. I have a huge problem reading printed pages anymore...(sleeping disorder kicks in almost instantly) 1 or 2 paragraphs and I'm yawning and shifting....if I make it through a full page I'm lucky. Anyhow to further Hijack this thread. Wouldn't it be cosmically hilarious to have Murray view one of these GPL movies they users produce and comment on it like a real race. Somebody could record a replay of a major online race....transfer it to a viewable format and then ask Murray to record race commentary. Final product could be put together by the replay creator I would think. once again...sorry for dreamily wandering waaay off topic. dave henrie --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

If you want to know about Murray the Man, his background etc - it's fantastic ( I loved it ) if you want to know about formula one - forget it Doug
