And i resumed the struggle. Mark Rabiner So there you are again! ======================================================================= The relationship between Mark's post and the preceding posts in this thread escapes me. In keeping with the bizarre nature of OT threads on the LUG, I humbly submit the following true, if somewat distasteful, news item for the perusal of those so inclined. I challenge anyone to think of any way in which it could be made topical for the LUG :-) Prankster killed by irate tiger February 22, 2001 - ------------------------------------------------- A YOUNG zoo keeper in the eastern Chinese city of Jinan was mauled to death by a tiger after apparently defecating on it in a prank which went badly wrong. Evidence at the scene, including lavatory paper, excrement and a loosened trouser belt, suggested that Xu Xiaodong, 18, had climbed on the tiger cage at the animal park where he worked and relieved himself over four Bengal tigers. Officials believe that he either slipped or was dragged in by an angry tiger.
