Maye I don't fully grasp your definition of "knife" switch. Are you talking about something like this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knife_switch Wouldn't want one of those things within 10 feet of a location that might have petrol vapours. ( hope I spelled it right for our Canadian friends) Actually no although one could argue that vapor and vapour are, speaking relatively you understand, the same thing. According to my handy dandy dictionary/thesaurus of all things Englishy and Etymological, the correct spelling is vapor, but vapour is acceptable as it is part of the word vapourous (filmy, obscure, unable to be seen; hidden). Just doing my part. *:) Yes, but do you own 2 copies of Oxford English Dictionary? *If not, you don't have any right to discuss the proper spelling or the Etymology of words. I have both thank you very much. Altough I understand that they won't be printing any more hard cover dictionaries. I could be wrong though. Yes they are obsolete. We awl half speel cheepers now I'd hate to see the publishers of the OED give up publishing the hardbound edition. I know the Third Edition has been underway for some time, and I certainly will buy one when it becomes available. If it becomes available. The Second Edition has been in print for 20 years and although there have been "Additions," it would be nice to have the new set. |
