Are there rocky mountains in Holland? ;-)))) You could be "Rocky-Mountain Jack" in Murrkin, it sounds rather Brechtian (Alaska-Wolf Joe is a character in "Mahagonny") In Kash, you would be: (yan, can or huwan) suranjakra (["suran'dZakra] surañ 'mountain', cakra colloq. adj. form of cangar 'rock') BTW, just today I downloaded the Anvil Works MIDI-composer thingy that Danny Wier mentioned. Quite fun, a little tricky, and I need to memorize the help file.........
