You can't always blame the census when you find an unexpected name or occupation etc. This is a recollection from about 15 years ago... I filled out a credit application on behalf of a customer,and as a colleague was ringing another through she offered to pass on my application to the credit department whilst awaiting her customers result. My customer was a physcotherapist,unfortunatly my colleague bless her,had to disect the occupation down into manageable sizes to pronounce it. So my customer became a Physcho The Rapist. Strange to think two extremes could be so closely connected. Glen
