Sarcasm is a subet of irony, as I found out when we had a long thread on TBOT about making these ironic style modes clear to all readers of our lists. We even put a smiley image for use in this way on the page at http://www.PCWize.com/thebat/PCWSmileys.php It's :steamiron: , meaning to give the implication of steaming-hot (smoking-hot) irony. But, I did it to death, trying to get Tony to take it up and distinguish that way between his serious comments and his ironic (including sarcastic) comments. But he would not. :woe: :unreal2: LOL -- Best regards, Mary The Bat 3.5.25 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.5.25 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
