Re(2): RC: Re(2): RC: RC: Carbo Charge on the Fly

No I don't think so. I'm from Belgium, you know, this small country near France; we have Eddy Merckx, the famous bicker; the belgian chocolates, the belgian draft horse, the belgian french fries (this is a belgian invention, but you know, the frenchies, they think everything belong to them!); Jacques Brel, the most famous french singing singer...

I met Donna atr the Tevis in 97, but it must not be what y're speaking about

Thanks for the race; Orfeo is the best :):):)  but Valerie must have secrets :)
