Hello, Jean.

 JP>         I love it. Looses a lot in the translation though.

Now that I think of it,  I guess French parrots don't say "Polly want a
cracker."   So my intended joke of using "quacker" instead
and making a
joke about "DUCKing" may not have translated well, either.

 JP>         I got hold of the PQ.pdf file. Lots of reading. It will keep me
 JP>         busy for a few days. Then back at you. Tee ! hee !

Speaking of losing something in the translation - - I'm drawing a blank
here.    What's the PQ.pdf file?
