Isn't it great fun to catch people at the very same mistakes for which they're 
flaming others? And in the very same posting - tsk, tsk!!

While we're at it - what is the official Lynch/Frost designation for the 
Jan. 26th episode?? Perhaps 2013.5 ?? The reason I need to know, is that I 
want to start a letter-writing campaign to get this episode aired in 
Norway as well - it somehow got lost on the way across the Atlantic, I 
believe. From what I've heard (and indeed believe from watching all the 
other episodes) this episode is essential for the understanding of 
everything that happens later on. My campaign would probably be most 
effective if support could be gathered from all around the world - so 
please help me with this. If you find the time, e-mail me at:
     OhNoh!@itis.happ.eningag.ain
Thanks in advance! :-)
