En Grammar in Songs (117* d) RE: Grammar in Songs 07 Feb 01

I enjoy your arguments, cowboy. I believe one should speak as one chooses, too. Using "he" when one means to say "one" is not nearly as troublesome as using "they" when one means "he," would you agree?

Please tell me I made you laugh; my son, reading over my shoulder told me to lose the hyphen (that would be the one in anal-retentive).

"I'm not sure that the point is to be understood fully." Of course you are right. Perhaps the point is really to express oneself. Oh pleeeeease don't get me started on the question, "What is art?"

BTW, OED is my favorite book so I'll be contacting you regarding my funeral arrangements in case you know someone who can do that with a dictionary.
