Please cease to attribute words and claims to me that I did not make. What I said is in google as I don't use X-Archive:No. Go check. It's got nothing to do with what you claim above.

You claimed I was using an expression that didn't exist. I proved it does indeed exist and is widely used in English speaking environments. What else can I say?

Shall I run a search on the first phrase? As for the 2nd quite frankly, the distinction between "about to get the boot" or "getting the boot" is hair thin.

You miss the point. You claimed that I used phrases that only exist in my "neck of the woods". I showed you thousands of uses of the phrase totally outside of that place. I don't even need to go into the details.

You may disagree with my interpretation of any historical claim or economic theory, but that does not authorize you to claim what I said doesn't exist. I proved already that it does. Any further interpretation is of necessity subjective, to which you are of course entitled and I fully respect. Just don't claim I use phrases that don't exist. And that's the end of it as far as I'm concerned.
