So that's why! I find it interesting that here the Church is a force I'm slightly confused - are you saying that American Episcopal practice is to place the bread in people's mouths? This is rather unlike the Episcopal Church in Scotland, and the Anglican Church of Canada. Do you also receive in both kinds? BTW, the host is supposed to be a wonderful remedy for caterpillars on cabbage! :^) -- Henry Troup - BNR owns but does not share my opinions | Not one of 100% of ..uunet!bnrgate!hwt%bwdlh490 HWT@BNR.CA 613-765-2337 | Americans
