Ahh, Jane, my all time favourite!! (My thesis at University was "Jane
Austen: a study in late 18th century conduct books"). What am I doing
working in computing for a Stockbroker, well a degree in English &
History does not mix too well with CP and Employment. Wanted to be an
archivist, but couldn't see them letting me use a "Page Turner" on a
Gutenberg Bible!!!
