Ah, this clears up a long-standing question of mine, regarding the song
"Delius" on NFE!  God, I love that album. :-)

This film was based on the book by Gurdjieff (sp?), another Kate reference
("Them Heavy People" on TKI).  It's an excellent book, BTW.  I recommend
it as a good introduction to Gurdjieff's philosophical works.

Can anyone come up with others I've missed?  Or does Kate explain them
herself in the transcription? (I haven't had a chance to read Cloudbusting
yet.)
