OK, I delved into my desk drawer, pulled out my HoL tape, bunged it
into the Squalkman (TM), hit the volume thumbwheel and dekko'd...

I reckon all he says is "Earth" - twice; you can hear it more clearly
during the second "Hello Earth".  However, I'm absolutely prepared for
IED to shoot me down in flames on this - he always seems to get the
lyrics that no-one else can (remember the "lovely toy" line in
eKsperimenT IV?).

By the way - hello again after an enforced absence of mailbox, nice to
see the list's still running - keep up the greaT worK, |>oug.

he sees no reason for the fighting.
