I really like the banshee/Branshea connection too! Really, careful now, I'm afraid all this flattering wil turn me into a spoiled brat. And Luke should at least put in a vote instead of anagramming the somaniest edition of the word SALIENT (I strongly advise you to choose e or h or f or maybe i or b ) she wailed.......
