Lochlan ~~ thank you for having at last come out as to the origin of your Cat-name. I did genuinely believe you had adopted it becoz you like smoked salmon; hence the misunderstanding and its misuse: which, however, I can't feel altogether worth the alarmingly [as to your preoccupations and obsessions] abusive & mannerless obloquy thus occasioned...

Words are there to be used. Such vocabulary as I may employ is all present within my normal compass: the image of my sitting there with Roget or Chambers looking to challenge the comprehension of those less semantically well-endowed is a most entertaining one.

Steve ~ if I could make heads or tails of Don's statistics I might be convinced by them.
