HI Tom -

I'm flattered to be a woman in your dreams!  thanks for sharing....

PS - I'm a great fan of dreams...   If we ever do meet, I'll tell you  
some of mine.  One of my favorites (I can't resist), not long after  
9/11, involved a plane crashing into the windows of a hotel room next  
to mine on 42nd  Street in New York.  Next scene, everyone is out in  
the street, milling around, looking up at the smoking hole in the side  
of the building.  An authority figure gets up on some kind of perch  
and announces: "Relax everyone!  Please go back inside!  We have  
identified the perpetrator; it was not a terrorist. It was a  
disgruntled farmer from upstate New York."
