The Great and Powerful tsuwm quotes:

"The old material of language is constantly suffering extension and transferral to new uses." -Whitney

I think I like this Whitney if his use of "suffering" is in the positive, not the negative, sense. Who is this Whitney, I wonder. There are gaps a-plenty in my sometimes education.

And, wwh, you didn't respond to my ribs comment, by the way. I am wondering what you thought of it, doc!?

Best regards,
WhitneyWondering
