One thing I was curious about tiger stripe naming - why didn't they switch "Baghdad" and "Cairo" so we have a nice A,B,C,D progression? I can only imagine it was done on purpose, but why? -------------------- www.flickr.com/photos/ugordan

It wouldn't surprise me if they did but, well, I'm just wondering whats happened to it? -------------------- My paintings and drawings My Blog
