Out for picking nits in grammar? Now, don't get *me* started. Definitely virii is not a word in any civilised language, sorry to say that. There may be some barbarians out there using it, but let's leave it to them; it's not a correct declination of virus, and repeating a mistake doesn't take the mistake out of it. Then, there is millennium and millennia. O.K. And, sorry again, "phenomena" is correct as the plural form of "phenomenon", or do you think such a perfect singer/songwriter as Kate Bush would make a mistake? Listen to "Strange Phenomena" and the rest of her "The Kick Inside" album and see what a beautiful language yours can be. Couldn't resist. OM (who started Latin when he was 10 years old, in a country where lots and lots of barbarians think "antibiotika" is a singular noun...)[Shake] /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign \ / No HTML/RTF in email X No Word docs in email / \ Respect for open standards -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
