I was late coming to the thread and that's been a good thing. Plenty of opinions for me to read ,for,against and indifferent. I am saddened by the (apparently )ruthless departure of Mike - but the world moves on.
I don't know Nick Dow and why he keeps beating himself up regarding apostrophes , but Nick, if you ARE still reading this thread, supercedes (as you have spelt it earlier) is actually spelt supersedes. Something to do with the Latin verb seder = to carry.
I suppose some could take issue with spelt / spelled , anyway what the fuck ? supersede is one of those words I used for many years - written as Nick did, until someone pointed it out to me. Mea Culpa etc...
Otherwise keep contributing Nick - I enjoy reading your well-constructed comments (apostrophe or spelling mistakes or not).
Yours (tongue in cheek)
