I'm terribly sorry, but I do not know the meaning of the word "thrill".
Is this the sound mud ducks make when copulating?

Maybe my last THRILL posting appeared a bit like SPAM. Just to allay
any questions - I'm a researcher at the Royal College of Art, England.
I've got an arts grant to research this subject of thrill, and develop
ideas for how thrill could be engineered.

Who wants to visit my web site anyway! Here's the interview as you'd
have found it. I invite anyone connected with canoeing or kayaking to
be interviewed about your most thrilling encounters.

Feel free to complete the interview publicly in the user goup (please
send a copy to me via email), or do the whole thing privately in an
email.

Thanks, in anticipation.
