By the way, I hear "D'yer Mak'er" by Led Zepplin right now and wanted to pass along something that many of you (if there ARE many of you) may already know.

I once saw a tv interview with Robert Plant and he explained that the song title is from a joke.

ONE ENGLISH GUY: My wife's gone off to Kingston.
OTHER ENGLISH GUY: D'yer Mak'er?
ONE ENGLISH GUY: No. She left of her own accord.

Get it?

Plant said it always makes him laugh when Americans talk about how much they love "Dire Maker".
