   oh yeah! good catch :-)   
   in another way of taking that list theme, the 72' 'Rich man' LP from 'Climax   
   Chicago'   
   had the anti- piece "Please don't help me".   
   (quite good though not as catalyst as their braintaking   
   "If you wanna know" but that one would be a head piece for another theme list   
   -)
