| There is a brewery in Bocholt, but I had to be there to search for signs of the hylotropus bajulus, we call them "boktor", and there it was, but uninfected, in the fading snow, tender and blue. |

Through a bizarre coincidence, the CD just arrived in my house today so I will listen to it and see if it teaches me to say "huisboktor." |

| wim commented on 01.31.04 | | Be carefull with shapingyour mouth.You have to say "huis" as if you are going to wisthle as for the "h". The "ui" comes as in the song "rawhide" when they sing "hyee" to make the cattle move. Mail me your phonenumber and I will let you hear. |

| Rebecca commented on 01.30.04 | | Well then it's a good thing we have an expert along. My co-worker informs me that I can almost say "huisboktor" the right way but I am not shaping my mouth enough or something. |

| wim commented on 01.30.04 | | they raher say "èèèk" or "èètch" but to see the larvae is rather difficult, what you see is the grown beetle, and by then is often is too late for the wood, as the larvae has spent up to 13 years eating his way out, and never is alone. |
