Ian. Perhaps I should have just written "Wise and beautiful words" as some
appeared unable to "translate" the sentence. The original reason for the
comment is long forgotten now. It certainly seems to have started a storm
in a teacup Hi. I am sure that there are more interesting things to write
of. I enjoy, indeed seekm clarity too, but that is not to say that other
English words should not be used. Use them or lose them I say. My very
best regards to you, Jeff.
