No, not a sausage. The word is probably correct, but i imagine others will require more convincementation.

Anyhow, given language is just a medium of communication, as long as you get your point across, hell, it's done its job. Similarly if that means I have to drop a few u's every now and again when i'm coding 'color' , well it isn't going to kill me. If we start getting prissy about English we'll end up like France, with their religious protectionism for a fading language. Received on Thu May 11 2006 - 11:29:53 CDT
