#2 One must speak to one's audience in the language they will best understand, after all.

Better throw a "y'all" or two in there as well, ma'am. It makes certain Greeks feel better.

#3 I am weak on the classics, too. Thanks for the quote, TW. Gave me some new insight on the Ap@llo Alliance, authors of the ci@lis bill.

And so I shall, Pappy, when writing in American. But that was pure Homerian Greek, that was. One of the lost stanzas of the Illiad. You can tell because it's written in all those funny hooks and squiggles of the Classic Greek alphabet, the one that came so many centuries after Homer.

Lumpy Elmoluck5091, glad I could help. Even the worst doggerel contains a tiny insight or two if approached with the proper frame of mind.

#5 How sad is it that they elected a government that promised to beg money for them.
