I think that, for the benefit of those list members of nervous 
disposition, we ought to explain at this point that "ZOO" is a new UK 
"lad's mag" - kind of like a weekly version of FHM or MAXIM - and 
nothing to do with, ahem, "animal husbandry" or similar pursuits....

I picked up the current UK FHM at Heathrow to read on the plane, and 
a free sample copy of ZOO came bundled with it.... Indy seemed to 
take a liking to it, so I left it with him (along with this month's 
SFX as well, which has a very perky Eliza Dushku on the cover).

If Indy has a secret stash of spelunking* mags, then I never noticed 
them...... but hey, each to their own!

guess Laserlight had this in mind when he put it on the character 
sheet...
