We have a little community college here in Lancaster, California, that offers computer courses. I don't know if anything they have could stand a student next to Shannon.

Mireille, you are absolutly correct. The Ericksons was a name they took from one of the men in the act who was Stieg (spelling?) He was, I think Swedish. They did not want to use a German name as it was still too soon after the war. Several other acts coming to the United States use the same stategy. Jackie LeClaire
