and let's not forget octopi and hippopatamuseseses.
According to a Greek-speaking friend of mine, "octopus" takes a Greek plural - "octopodes" - and so she recommends "octopuses". Eta, do you ever have trouble figuring out how to stop spellin chrysanthemumumumumum?

The Romish Doctrine concerning Purgatory
Oh, that purgatory. I'm sorry. I thought you were typing about the second canticle of Dante's Comedy. Some kind of po-mo hell for infinitive-splitters and such ilk.
