Any idea _which_ Belgian beer? Belgium is the beer Mecca, to which all true beer-lovers must make pilgramage once in their lives. If they're lucky. :-) Did you know that in WWI, Germany conquered Belgium one brewery at a time? I saw a picture once of a bunch of German soldiers outside one such brewery, all with bottles in their hands and looking quite inebriated. (Move forward to brewery, "liberate" brewery, stop, drink until all stocks are gone, move forward to next brewery. Lather, rinse, repeat. :-) -- Frank Mayhar frank at exit.com http://www.exit.com/ Exit Consulting http://www.gpsclock.com/
