I'm starting to believe Gord's going to get every possible award a man can get in his field and also in relation to his extra-caricular activities! I recal on one thread last year,I said he'd soon be eligible for the Nobel Peace Prize! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif Could happen at this rate! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif Later! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/cool.gif

from the folks who know:

Hello Char,
Yes, the first inductees have been laid in concrete. Check out
<folkwalk.ca>. We have a few pictures and will put them on the web site
asap.
the newest inductees are Leonard Cohen and Estelle Klein. We will lay
them in the spring when the temperature is warm enough to set the
concrete.

Well, to be more specific, the picture was taken last
year - about 15 minutes after the city guys laid the thing
in the sidewalk. The pavement was still pretty
wet :)
