Pete,

theres a couple of things you have to find out the hard way...

you see, they feel they invented it[1], and have the right to change
it[2], the rest of us just use the language... and they get really
snotty if we[3] get cute and do our own language contortion.

but you get that in the big city =)

yours,

kim

[1] - english, british...
[2] - the english, more specifially those from the east end.
[3] - antipodeans, aussies, saffies, kiwis.
