      Hi! Michael,              On 10/13/2018 02:48 AM, you wrote to Alexander Koryagin:               AK>> What is a green beach, what is a tarmac sea, and how can they meet?        AK>> ;-)               MD> Заросший пляж вплотную подступает к       асфальтированной дороге (морю        MD> асфальта)       Translated by Bing...               MD> Overgrown beach is close to the paved road (Sea of asphalt).              Bad boy. :)              Some Russian fellers take too much to heart and think that every written thing       ought to be taken literally. I think there is some literary licence being       taken by the author of that passage. When I first read it I thought that       someone had discovered the Blues Brothers but, no.              Then there seemed to be an oblique reference to the artwork style (coloured       sequences) in the 'Wizard Of Oz' 1930s film. I think my latter idea is close.              Cheers,       Paul.              --- Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/31.4.0        * Origin: So Many Messages!
