It goes on with velcor." > She has many problems with trademarked brand names. ;^) Heh... Well, things like "styafoam" I pass off as thick accent, inability to enunciate... What gets mea bout people using "ideal" isntead of "idea" is that they presumably are capable of pronouncing it correctly and simply haven't taken the time to learn the (significant) difference between the two. I knew a girl once who didn't know the difference between "taut" and "taunt".
