hi Donna,

I don't know what it would really relate to there, I've been told by

a friend that visits here from america that there is nothing over

there that is the same, but vegemite is a sandwich spread here in

Australia. My daughter even did a dance in our last concert called

We're happy little vegemites, which is the theme song for the

product lol. Apparently its an acquired taste, but we all love it

lol. Heres a link to it http://www.vegemite.com.au/

regards

I didnt respond to the poll....It has been so extremely busy here lately that

i have something like 500 emails...LOL.

When I went to school I remember that in the case of chromosonal anomalies

there are more girl babies than boy babies. This is due to the fact that

genetically females are stronger than males. Has to do with the 23rd sex

chromosome. I know that there is literature on this somewhere.....I will look

around on

the web for it.

Oh and you can add one more girl to the poll...LOL
