Wow! Thank you for enlightening me on this. For so many years I thought that the one side of the "V" was longer because the geese with the longer tails were instructed to stay together on one side by the "Head Goose!!" Thanks Tex!

I'm sure a major contribution is that most lefties are men, who have a shorter life span than women.

Now, will they be assesing my houses value before or after it has been blown away by the nuke?

Gerry Rafferty, of Baker Street fame, was a founding member of Stealers Wheel. There is no apostrophe in the band's name. I predict that later, Rex will edit my post to make everyone think I spelled it apostrophy.

Grammatically speaking, I am probably the worst poster on this site.
