<DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>General opinion is that it is a bit of a=

publicity stunt. It would not be the first 'windup' attributed to the loc=

<P>Not being a subscriber to the comic, I've heard about the proposed s=
ale=20
of the trebles today. Surely this is some kind of joke, and they'=
ll=20
never get a faculty? If not, shouldn't the ringers in-charge be l=
ocked=20
up, and/or a bid be put in to take the whole ring somewhere else where =
they=20
might be appreciated?</P>
