However, the PR people, including Bill Murray, worked over Punxs'y pretty well to prevent resentment (he road in the next Groundhog Day parade, left signatures all over town, and so forth), and they did a good job - people there don't seem to mind seeing a faux Pantall Hotel, Ruth and Harry's Coffee Shop, etc. I don't know what Bill Murray is doing these days, though. Regards, Tim, venturing off his bed following apparently highly successful back surgery; recuperation being sped by fondling his newly acquired IIIc! Now trying to learn all he can about bargain normal LSM lenses.
