Listen to a sad story:  We were on the net for a short time
last year, and I became an avid reader of net.tv.drwho.  Someone
posted a few trivia questions with the understanding that he
would post the answers in 'a couple of weeks'.  Before the
time passed, we upgraded to 4.2bsd, and it was MONTHS before
we got news working again.  I missed the answers.  So please,
someone tell me:  Which Companion posed nude for a british men's
magazine, and what was the magazine?  I'm dying to know.
Thanks in advance.
