Duremikaina

[IEDSRI@aol.com]

 Graham and Dan are both offering fascinating and 
much appreciated new ideas about the meaning of 
this line.  IED sees the merit in both, but also the
limitations of each:  Graham's first two words may
be correct, but IED, for one, hears the last four
syllables as something like "mee-kah-ee-na", which
of course wouldn't accomodate "Na" and "kina" very 
well; and Dan's suggestion of a bastardized phonetic
approximation of "Dreamtime" works better in the 
first half than in the second half of "Duremikaina" 
(though this by no means disproves it).  

IED seems vaguely to recall a years-ago citation of
an Aboriginal folksong (or possibly a story) called
"Airplane Airplane", from which this mysterious line
was said to have been culled.  Does this ring a bell
with anyone?  

Many thanks and continuing interest from your
