That's again looking like becoming pure sugar - thanks for your comments - I'd kike to read many more of this kind.

As for thread creeps: Any great invention was first one. The most stupid answer I ever got in my life was "We never did it this way." And I'm also convinced that many many years ago somebody near Cro Magnon said something like: "We are not talking of MAKING fire now..." - So let it creep if it wants to.

McGrath - First of all thanks for that great link on swahili. (There are some reasons for me to not sign up I personally take for serious. They are not a secret, but I don't think that they are important or interesting enough to be published. Some of them may be interesting to certain people, yes, so if you really want to know them just tell me and I'll send you an email.)
