Well , actually I really appreciate a *real* dutch cow... martina needs milk every morning... BTW, no, I'm not advocate for a real "pluche" animal. (hm, reminds me of this inflatable pig that the pink floyd guys use(d), a > big inflatable cow floating above the context conference location) > Arrghh.. this pig (Animals album) created some problems to floyd.. ".... On 3 December 1976, during the second day, a gust of wind broke the pig free of its moorings. Because there was no one to shoot the pig down, it sailed away into the morning sky. A passenger plane reported seeing the pig, causing all the flights at London Heathrow Airport<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Heathrow_Airport>to be delayed [*citation needed <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed>*]. A police helicopter was sent up to track the pig, but was forced to return after following the pig to an altitude of 5,000 feet. A warning was sent out to pilots that a giant, flying pink pig was loose in the area[*citation needed <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed>*]. The CAA lost radar contact on the pig near Chatham in Kent, at a height of 18,000 feet and flying East. It finally landed in a farmer's field, without much damage. ..:" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animals_(album) -- luigi [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: text/html, Size: 3711 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 487 bytes --] ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread
