Hmmm... I don't know why he'd have labelled it as a possum. Are you sure
about that? And, for the record, a 'sugar glider' _is_ a possum.

But, this is [was] a beautiful ascii drawing of a "Tarsier" - probably from
the Philippines, or around the area.

In fact, I've seen a photograph that looks like it _had_ to be the model for
Rowan's drawing. Sorry, I don't have the photo, I've only seen it.

and no spaces). I'm sick of email spam.
