Spectroscopy of the z = 2.0763 absorption line system in Q2206-199N
shows that it has a very large hydrogen column density
(5×1020cm-2) but extremely weak absorption
due to heavy elements. The authors discuss the possibility that the gas
cloud causing this aborption system may be exceptionally metal-poor.
