Oh, sweet earth, am I glad I live in Orstrayleeyah ... a land of wide open 
spaces ... wide open enough to contain more than one Oils song !!!!!!
How many times in the last 5 years on PW have I heard the "HITS we only 
get 'Beds Beds Beds' from T.C.Pits"  conversation !!!!! 
Well you TITS (There In The States) are most severely to be pitied.  
HITLC (Here In The Lucky Country) T.C.Pits knows a much broader set of 
songs (sure still only half a dozen maybe - new thread hint: "what do 
Aussie PWs think are the 6 songs that Aussie non-Oils fans know?").
Rant rant rant ... ... it's been fun ... 
Cheers
 Rob
