I have always wanted to see them, the Northern Lights but it's a long way to Alaska from here.

<BR />Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
<BR />I cremated Sam McGee.</B></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.wordinfo.info/words/index/info/view_unit/2640/?letter=C&spage=26"><CENTER>by Robert W.
