Sorry, Neil, I didn't mean to be "short" with you. It hurt my ego a little bit that my personal suggestions had already been "well covered"!I love these book suggestions!! Especially, "Getting the Words Right..." and "The Random House Word Menu!" Now, as soon as I get another check! It just occurred to me that (at least here), you can order books like that online from the main library downtown and have them sent to your local branch (I've done that, and if it's really something I can't do without, I buy it).
