I thoroughly enjoyed your pictures, Savageduck. Too bad LOL wasn't along
to get some cheetah pictures taken while he was running backward ahead
of a whole pack of them, while eating a sandwich and talking on a cell
phone and reading a book.

Thanks,
I was expecting some sort of comment from him, since he has yet to
provide evidence he does little more than behave as a troll, I try to
take his existence in these NGs as a pothole in the internet highway.

Why not leave Mr. H. to watch over alt.? (removed).

I just don't like his posting here and setting fu elsewhere, although I
