I recently discovered that one of my co-workers is an Oils fan too. We had
been discussing schedules and I had told him that I was swapping a Thursday
for a Friday so I could go to a concert. I told him it was MO, and he said
something noncommittal like "oh, cool".
An hour or so later we were digging in the -88 C deep freeze and he started
into "there's gotta be one place left in this world" ...
The next time we rearranged a freezer it was This Arctic World.
The poor guy has about six albums, but has never been to a live show. I'll
convert him from fan to fanatic yet ...
