0 Guest Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Then I think Taliesin got it, I think and it fits. And Taliesin, if you want to know why it fits:is a figurative circle, or "ring" (of people) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 And Taliesin, if you want to know why it fits:is a figurative circle, or "ring" (of people) Ah, I didn't catch on to that one - I thought it would be it, but couldn't make the connection from "a small, elitist group of people"...

0 Guest Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 the authors first name figures in the chipmunks OK, that would be Simon, Theodore, Alvin or Dave - unless it's a Chipette! There are a couple there, but I can't find any titles that match (on amazon anyway...) - Simon Head, mulitple "Economics Theodores" and didn't find any Alvin's. Arrgh!!!
