Congratulations!

Of course I think it's . . . hmm . . . chauvinist? . . . to preclude
all us poor wrecks outside the US and Canada (I did, naturally, make a

So I started listening on Tuesday, and what a surprise - no Tom
Bombadil, Old Man Willow or Barrow Downs there either! (Not really
surprising, I guess, since it's about the same length as Jackson's
