There was a good two inches of it, z-folded, and it seemed a shame to just throw away part of a tree.... Joe was delighted with the idea, and took it home happily. Next morning he wasn't nearly so happy. It seems that holding one end of the paper, and running at top speed ALL through the house, was a lot more fun than drawing on it. -- -- bob,mon (bobmon@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu) -- "Aristotle was not Belgian..." - Wanda
