Very good and well       written....              The Cuckoo's Egg is a nice fast-paced read. There is a film/documentary by the       same name that was produced around that time which is also fun to watch.                     --- tg BBS v0.6.3        * Origin: Fido by Telegram BBS by Stas Mishchenkov (2:460/58)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 124/5016 154/10 203/0 221/0       SEEN-BY: 221/6 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 452 664 1016 240/5832       SEEN-BY: 249/110 206 317 400 280/464 5003 288/100 292/854 310/31 317/3       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/120 460/58 777 1124 5858 712/848       SEEN-BY: 770/1 2452/250 5054/30       PATH: 460/58 280/464 229/101 426           |
