Do not know! May have been, although quite doubtful. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christchurch Christchurch is the regional capital of Canterbury, New Zealand. It is the largest city in the South Island, as well as the second largest city and third largest urban area of New Zealand. A coastal city, it is situated just north of Banks Peninsula, midway down the South Island's eastern coast. The city is named after the Christ Church cathedral, which is itself named after Christ Church, a college at the University of Oxford, and the Cathedral of Oxford. The city was originally known as Christ Church, the written form consolidating by the 1880s. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hope that Wikipedia still allows you to read their works!

Maybe not! And the "Fat Lady" still has not sung. And the "Fat Lady" still has not sung. But I do believe that I hear someone beginning to hum "DIXIE"! Just not certain as to where it is about money, cotton, or perhaps both. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixie The word "Dixie" refers to a privately issued currency from banks in Louisiana[1]. These banks issued ten-dollar notes, labeled "Dix" (French for "ten") on the reverse side. These notes are now highly sought-after for their numismatic value. The notes were known as "Dixies" by English-speaking southerners, and the area around New Orleans and the Cajun-speaking parts of Louisiana came to be known as "Dixieland". Eventually, usage of the term broadened to refer to most of the Southern States. I Wish I Was in Dixie Main article: "Dixie (song)" "I Wish I Was in Dixie's Land" Sheet music"I Wish I Was in Dixie" is a popular song about the South. It was written by composer Daniel Emmett, a Northerner, and published in 1859. A blackface minstrel-show troupe debuted the song that same year in New York City. As with other minstrel show numbers, the song was performed in blackface and in exaggerated Black English Vernacular. The song proved extremely popular and became widely known simply as "Dixie". The song has also been published as "Dixie's Land". The song became the unofficial anthem of the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War. This and the tune's minstrel-show origins have created a strong association of "Dixie" with the Old South. As a result, some today view the song as offensive and racist. On The Dukes of Hazzard, the horn of the General Lee played the first 12 notes of the melody from "Dixie." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: THE COMMUNITY CHURCH (UNITARIAN-UNIVERSALIST) Type Entity: Non-Profit Religious Corporation Status: Active Annual Report Status: In Good Standing Add Certificate of Good Standing to Shopping Cart Last Report Filed on 09/06/2006 Mailing Address: C/O DR.
