Hi - Did you notice that POB uses a kind of red hearing in
the books. One of his characters in Treasons Habor is an
Italian lady with red hair that plays the mandolin and
piano. In a previous book the Captain's frind H. Dundas was
courting an italian woman with red hair who plays the mandolin
and piano. At first I thought that it would turn out to be
the same one, but I was wrong = a red hearing.
