True enough, though there have been a few basically competent 
and decent senior officers who had problems with her; Hemphill 
and Parks (if I'm remembering his name correctly) come to mind.  
Still, I don't deny that it's nice to see a bit more variety, 
and Oversteegen's an interesting and believable addition to the 
zoo.
