Don't know Misha.  I should have had some film in the camera though.  The
skull was kinda cool; about half the size of a real head.  After the poetry
reciting it became a splat.  Now it's just an uncoloured blob in the fridge
that must be worked with this evening.

Hey Waryn.  If you cann't get any saunders or galengale let me know and I
can post some to you.  I have to go to the store and get some things for a
couple of other folks tomorrow.  Saunders is red sandlewood and the place I
go sells whole or shredded galengale.  Tonight when I get home I shall have
to try this water/fat soluable thing.  My computer at home finally got fixed
yesterday so I shall be online with the results of the experiment later.
