Now I failed English, but I think his reaction is because your wrote: amusing how you justify When I type that into Google the hits I get are not positive at all but negative. Of course you put 'very' in front of that phrase so seems at least to me to be almost contentious. English is a very weird language and I've been caught out a couple of times on this List thinking I've written something OK, if not amusing, only to discover it's offensive to some one in some other country in some other circumstance. I try to learn but I'm sure to make other faux pas. I'm sure you meant it bought a smile to your face, but I hope you can also see that the whole phrase has other connotations, and can mean quite the opposite to others. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
