That suprises me too.  But if Kate Bush is going commercial, working to
help runaways would not be all that inconsistant with other stuff that
she's done.  Besides, mabye she'll spend the cash on studio equipment.

Now, if she starts telling us that "...this is *not* my father's Sensual
Oldsmobile", I think I'll puke.
