	Ok, I know that it was just your opinion, but your wrong.  I
liked "The Clan of the Cave Bear" and couldn't put it down while I was
reading it.  Well, the main character was almost too perfect to be
true, but Jean Auel's (sp?) descriptions of the Clan's lifestyle are
very interesting.
	When you consider all the sage/trash that is being published
these days I though "Clan..." was rather unique.
