Melodeons definitely mark their territory ... to the extent that even alpha-male cats don't come near while they're calling out

And Jon B should definitely be worried about number 3...

Ah yes, all on page 1...
ASUW Experimental College :: John Spiers - John Spiers has been trading worldwide since 1974 and teaching with the Experimental College since 1984.
DBLP: John Spiers - Co-author of "Industry Panel on The Direction of Object Oriented Technology in the Marketplace"
John Spiers - A member of the www.photo.net community since August 25, 2002.
John Spiers - Professor. Author of George Gissing and the City: Cultural Crisis and the Making of Books in Late Victorian England
There are more on other pages too:
Design Creations is owned and operated by John Spiers (B. Ed) in Geraldton, Western Australia
John Spiers (Chief Executive) is a graduate of Clare College, Cambridge with more than 25 years experience of investment research.
John Spiers is a registered nurse at the University of Hawaii
Rev. John Spiers, former Moderator of the Presbytery of Glasgow, was born in Edinburgh in 1943.
John Spiers offers tourist guiding services in KwaZulu-Nata, South Africa.
John Spiers sits on the Scottish Executive of the Environment & Rural Affairs Dept, Plants, Horticulture and Potatoes Branch
and my favourite:
"This slim but thoughtful volume is a work of scholarship. John Spiers, chairman of the Patients Association, has thought deeply about issues of life and death and moral choices in health care. The book is based on a public lecture in which he gave tentative and qualified support for voluntary euthanasia."
So, he's quite an all-rounder 
Cheers
Nick

Ten top trivia tips about fiddles!
1. Fiddles are actually a vegetable, not a fruit!
2. Marie Antoinette never said "Let them eat cake"- this is a mistranslation of "let them eat fiddles."
3. Fiddles are often used in place of milk in food photography, because milk goes soggy more quickly than fiddles!
4. Devoid of cells and proteins, fiddles have the same chemical makeup as sea water!
5. By tradition, a girl standing under fiddles cannot refuse to be kissed by anyone who claims the privilege!
6. More than one million stray dogs and half a million stray cats live in fiddles.
7. Fiddlesicide is the killing of fiddles.
8. If you put a drop of liquor on fiddles, she will go mad and sting herself to death.
9. If you cut fiddles in half and count the number of seeds inslde, you will know how many children you are going to have.
10. Fiddles will always turn right when leaving a cave.
