are we annoying?

[Rolf.Peukert@Theoinf.TU-Ilmenau.DE (Rolf Peukert)]

look what i've found at the Terry Pratchett site "L-Space Web" 
(http://www.lspace.org/), in the annotations to the discworld 
novel "Moving Pictures":

> [p. 58/48] "'This is Gaffer Bird,' beamed Silverfish." 
>
> 'Gaffer' not only means 'old man', but a gaffer is also the head 
> electrician in a film production unit, charged principally with taking 
> care of the lighting. Gaffer's tape is a less sticky form of duct tape, 
> used universally in the theatre, concert and movie worlds to keep
> people from stumbling over cables. 
>
> If you enjoy annoying people, go over to the Kate Bush newsgroup
> rec.music.gaffa, and ask there if her song 'Suspended in Gaffa' 
> refers to Gaffer's tape or not. 

Take revenge! Ask for the words of the "Hedgehog Song" on 
alt.fan.pratchett! Ask if Mr. Pratchett reads the newsgroup! Ask...

p.s.: 1) the song is somewhere in the aforementioned archive 2) yes.
