Aye, it certainly is ISFF. Good posts to everyone above - bit of class I see.

I like Frost BD, I think his wife's insanity and son's suicide and a host of other misfortunes (inspite of many good fortunes) tempered Frost's imagination with a touch of the macarbre in some of his work. Kipling's work is well known DB - what a wise man.

Great pick KJ from R. Service- I like that one and have not read it before.
