Thought of artificially cooled English beer is painful (ugh!). As for the definition (actually the meaning) of 'is', I just looked it up in the Oxford English Dictionary: there are 10++ meanings. (The point Clinton made was not at all silly, but as a politician he should have known that most people would think it was.) So, don't worry about definitions - you may have set yourself an impossible task. And the bet: you say tomato I say tameito... So, let's call the whole thing off.... By the way, I just read Chris who thinks he was interjecting humor into all this; I thought you and I had already done that! (We are number ONE, we are...) Peter *Northernmost tip of Britain.
