This is the same country that still won't go metric, y'know. Dern Europeans with your funny time measures, weird dimensional and volumetric scales, that Euro thing, the wrong number of quotation marks, and of course your bizarre insistence on using 's' instead of 'z' in perfectly straightforward words such as 'hypothesize'. Perhaps if the Brits and Aussies, et. al., would drive on the *proper* side of the road we'd pay a little more attention to how they thought we should tell time. :D -- WthmO [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
