I find this quote by a particular John Fowles to be very profound at the least. Here he professes to be a Gordon Lightfoot fan, yet knows not where Orillia is? Read up on Gord's bio Mr. Fowles, you might find out a thing or two!!

tonights advert follows plus news of a fan in Orillia-wherever the heck that is!!

yes I am very particular. But I don't know where you are coming from flickchick as you have failed to even register here but have you never heard the expression "tongue in cheek"!!
Of course I know where Orillia is I have even been there and admired the Opera House
and seen the house where Gord used to live.
Not to mention nearby Christian Island
