still Miro here Wow. I went to Google both by a new window and by my own link above, this evening, and both just gave me Google. I wonder why?

Mm--I've been to that DaVinci Code link, months ago. It closed as it should for me just now, thank goodness.

yeahbut it's nearly accurate advertising: 'welcome to The Da Vinci Code'. Welcome to it indeed. The accuracy could have been improved if they hadn’t introduced the redundant ‘e’ at the end of the name but.
