Oh dear, what a load of pomp.
I have lurked for a shorter time than the rest of you, may be 8 years, but
it didn't take me long to realise Tony is quite a pedant.
If the group was not so precious about OT I would have chipped in earlier
re Bill Waugh, I knew a namesake many years agowhen living in Geordie land.
His name was pronounced as Billy Yuff. When Eviilyn published his diaries
in the 60's I recall a cartoon, son asks father "what did you do in the war?".
So why is Wii pronouncwd Wee ?
What is a Wius ? like so many radii,
Perhaps Wey aye is too Geordie.
But back to the SUBJECT ! !
Why are all these geeks so unwilling to change the subject heading ?
A lurker knows that the real matter will have drifted off after about ten.
