	Ah, you beat me to the reply. :-)

	Were any of the Anne fans able to watch the whole "Anne, the
Continuing Series" from Sullivan Productions? I only watched Part One, and
it was such a deviation from the books that I couldn't watch Part Two. That
wasn't my beloved Anne, it was Anne of Generation X.

	I live 4 hours away from PEI so I've been on the Anne exodus a few
times to pay homage. And I will be going again next summer!
