   Hi, All!   
      
   In "The Da Vinci Code", by Dan Brown I read this paragraph:   
      
   -----Beginning of the citation-----   
   Sauniere looked remarkably fit for a man of his years... and all of his   
   musculature was in plain view. He had stripped off every shred of   
   clothing, placed it neatly on the floor, and laid down on his back in   
   the center of the wide corridor, perfectly aligned with the long axis of   
   the room. His arms and legs were sprawled outward in a wide spread   
   eagle, like those of a child making a snow angel... or, perhaps more   
   appropriately, like a man being drawn and quartered by some invisible   
   force.   
   ----- The end of the citation -----   
      
   I wonder, what so special is in child's arms and legs when he makes a snow   
   angel? Does he really keep his legs apart? Maybe he has a pee?  ;=)   
      
   Bye, all!
