> Of Nat Hager III > wingspan of 7.45m, the TIMES OF LONDON is reporting Saturday.
The original Times article is at: www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,3-603370,00.html The Times has very strict editorial guidelines. This is occasionally discussed in the UKMA mailing list and I think the guidelines were available online somewhere, or they were provided in the mailing list. Incidentally, off-topic, I may have mentioned before my interest in transatlantic linguistic differences. The phrase "is reporting Saturday" stands out a classic case of a US style that appears very odd to a British ear. In British English it always needs another word (would it be a preposition?). In this case: 'on' as in: "is reporting on Saturday". -- Terry Simpson Human Factors Consultant [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.connected-systems.com Phone: +44 7850 511794
