***there's a typo in your trypo***
Nope, Wannabe. Whenever I edit a typo I give the reason as trypo. Done it since I joined up two and a half years ago. It's a very weak attempt at a little humour in my apology ... meaning I wrote tripe. Dunno about other countries, but tripe has a double-meaning in the UK; one is the food, of course, the other is 'nonsense'.
To claim I'd been around for over six CENTURIES instead of DECADES was more than a trypo, though, it was a full-blown blunder. Younger visitors might have believed it and asked me for the secret of longevity. I fixed it assap so that the point would be pointed out too often and clutter an already cluttered thread (to which I'm now adding a tad more).
Didn't work, of course. But when you're over 600 years old, you can be forgiven the odd wee slip in judgment.
Och well, all good fun. And a change from the serious stuff ... which maybe this thread isn't any more. I do feel it redundant. Interesting views expressed (many) and I hope we've all taken the thoughts of others to heart. Bestests (not a trypo but telexese). Neil
PS: I also speak fluent Pitman's shorthand. N
