Oh, and, by the way, the last thing I wanted to do is make fun of CanuckInLA,

Oh, that's okay. You'd be really unique if you didn't.

So, Canuck, I'm sorry. I didn't really intend for this to become a big stink.

No apology necessary. I have a small interest in linguistics (hey, I subscribe to a word-of-the-day that goes into the etymology of the word), so the digression doesn't bother me. I have my own pet peeves that I have to rant about, too (such as top-posting, and HTML in email). Have to admit, I was a bit blind-sided by it, but what the heck.

BTW, there is a guy on the board with the nick Canuck. So far as I can tell, he's just lurking, though... I was going to use that nick, but thought I'd be really unique if I tacked in the InLA part.

Muahahaha. I know how to push Bitt's really unique buttons!
