That makes much more sense! I thought you meant it was a class about native species of birds or something. And I was having trouble imagining that level of cluelessness. ;-)

Hah, I've been wanting to read Dickason's book because not only do I know jack about what's been going down on the Canadian side of the border, these things that I do not know jack about are apparently also complicated enough that I'm going to need a textbook to figure it out. Because reading blogs and applying Google hasn't been cutting it.

...well, then, I should get on that!
