        Thanks for letting me know Kevin. (do you want us to call you "Spike"
here too?)
Warning, the following is all a bit off-topic but hey it's been so quiet
here at least there's a topic at all:
        This news has me filled with excitement and joy - is anyone else here a
big Aardman/Nick Park fan? Wallace and Grommit are just so cool and
"Creature Comforts" makes me smile every time.
        A query for the North American posters - has Aardman and Wallace and
Grommit made it big (or made it anything) over there? I know Park has a
won an Oscar (or maybe two) for his work, but have they also captured
the imagination of the wider viewing public?
        Stash, fondly remembering her teenaged trips to the Valhalla in
Melbourne to see animation compilations before the goons shut the
theatre down.
