So according to this morning's Metro, Michigan became a state in 1930. And millions of Ghengis Khan's ancestors are alive and well in Britain.

I read that sentence too fast and thought "Michigan and millions of Ghengis Khan ancestors are at war with Britain."

Which would have been a much more awesome headline, I think.

Now have a mental image of hundreds of GM unionists rampaging across the steppe on horseback.

Followed by rabid Red Wings enthusiasts, waving broken hockey sticks.

SO. Do I get to bother you in July? :-D

No :p

Lowell's in the States from some point early in the month, but I should be around. Will you have the t00bfone?

What was the context for the Ghengis bit? We have a proven ancestor of his here in Miami, teaching accounting, iirc.

I think he's more likely to be a descendant.

Yes, and that would be my headache speaking.
