[I]  Again about Jodie Foster (aka Anne Harwell). . .

I read the article headlined "Matthew Rolston's 'Big Pictures' Photography
Show Opens in Tokyo" in _The Daily Yomiuri_ (3 Sep 92).  Excerpts. . .

===============
     ...Asked about who were the most impressive persons to photograph, he
named Jodie Foster, Isabella Rossellini and Anjelica Huston for not only
their beauty but for their uniqueness, intelligence and strength.
     "The quality about these women is like a man's.  Their mind is just
like a man's, but they are very feminine.  That contrast interests me,"
said Rolston...
===============

See?  What Rolston said proves the point of what I said last week. . .
======================================================================
[II]  Natalie asks (1 Sep 92):
at]> Yesterday I saw a TV commercial of the Honda Civic 'Ferio', in which

nm] What's a Ferio?  Do you know whether it's sold in the U.S., or is it
nm] just in Japan?
nm]   --Natalie (maynor@ra.msstate.edu)
nm]     Honda Civic fan who has never heard of a Ferio
======================================================
"Ferio" is a new version of the Honda Civic.  I believe it is being
targeted at female 'yuppie' types.  I don't know whether or not it is
being sold in the U.S.

======================================================
Nothing is missing from the archive tape, as far as I know.  The weekly
(or maybe monthly) volume of mail in the earlier days of Words-L was often
equal to the daily one today.  So, it isn't weird.

Now, back to Gleanings - Number 58.  I thank you very much indeed. (bow)
