    1. I suspect someone re-typed it instead of using cut-and-paste (probably one of those nasty faxes got in the way) 2. You are scary for having noticed that. You should meet my father, he is the same way. 3. That is an awesome theory, I am adopting it, thanks. regards, Paul Bluegrass South Africa Ravi Bhavnani wrote: it's sold on EBay and shipped from China (on how to inspire confidence in your product) Crikey! ain't life grand?

              If the original poster is correct about this being a Cambridge uni thing, try searching www.cam.ac.uk. Their search engine is reasonable, but I would imagine most of their pages are indexed in google anyway. You can find links to the various department pages from there though. The Cambrdige Computer Laboratory pages[^] are particularly good ;). -- Andrew.

I always thought it was cockney but it apparently is more Australian (though the two do mix). Crikey! what does it mean to you.[^] Andrew tells me I sound like Steve Irwin since I am saying it all the time.

                    I had the same thought and apparently they can't be guaranteed to perceive the first and last letters in place so it doesn't help.
