I was quite sure that their name were spelled differently, but not of the variations I tried seemed right. I was thinking that I should leave a note about it, but then I forgot it. Knowing Mark, I doubt that this correct spelling of their mispelled name will reward any points. Here is a fairly obscure read-my-thoughts piece of trivia: when I first saw the time frame and the list of names my first thought was "what a funny question and there is one name too few". So which quintet named after the members slipped into my mind? -- Erland Sommarskog, Stockholm, esquel@sommarskog.se |
