Razzie, this is great!  It's good to know that sometimes when we feel
like we are just a minute amount of the population, that there are
others out there who feel the same way that we do.  That is quite
evident by the amount of mail she has been receiving.

  Gee, a great song........picture Quince scratching her head trying
  to jog her memory (sorry, can't come up with any titles right now)
  with Doug doing the vocals.  Aah, wouldn't that be a real tear jerker?

Better yet, you're right picklet.  Forget the farewell song.  Of course,
that doesn't mean that Doug can't sing when he's in town does it?  That
would be a great introduction for him too.  Oh well, since TPTB think
that SSH is too old for this program they'll really think that Doug
(Bill) because, if I recall correctly, he has some grey hairs.

It makes me feel good to know that there's so much support and it's
not exclusively those of us from R.A.T.S.

I have a gut feeling Picklet that we may be able to save SSH.  If not
before she's let go then shortly after.  I really think that fans have
a big say on what's happening on their shows (granted, I may be naive
but, I one of those type of people who always hold out until the last
possible moment).  If all else fails.  We can really think of some really
good stuff to go with after she has left the program.

A die-hard til the end Quince
