Sloman is a west country name - there are more Slomans in the Taunton telephone directory than there are in the London telephone directory, and my great-grandfather Sloman was born in Bristol in 1850, though the family promptly got on the boat to Australia. There is a family of Slomans in Melbourne who are Jewish, but their grandparents were called Slominsky in Poland before they headed out to Australia around 1870. One of my chemistry lecturers was a member of the family (though he didn't have the Sloman surname). > No offence was intended, but if any were taken, I humbly apologise.

Like I said, you are morally defective, and that is not something you can apologise your way out of. -- Bill Sloman, Sydney -- This email has been checked for viruses by Norton antivirus software. www.norton.com
