LATEEN sails, LATEEN sails, LATEEN sails...
"Wilbur Hubbard" wrote in message ... "Floatything" dont wrote in message ... Honestly, some people just don't know the correct terminology. Now we have the pedantry over, can we get back to sailing? If some people don't know the correct terminology then they should be taught the correct terminology immediately, if not before and sooner than that if possible. Then why didn't you? Why did you find it necessary to be obtuse? Because of one person who spelled a word incorrectly in the subject line we have hundreds of subscribers seeing that incorrect spelling over and over and thinking that's the way it should be. Shame on anybody who allows something like that to slide. What's more important, sparing the feelings of a numbskull or demonstrating correct terminology to the maundering masses? What's more important is being civil. Usenet is chock full of gold-plated assholes. No point in adding yourself to the list. Max |
