Well, I'm trying to to tidy it up a bit before all you bottom-dwelling Northerners come in and mess it all up. Looks OK so far, but.

A little late, but - Happy New Year everyone! May your wishes for 2004 come true and may the optimists among us prove realists in terms of our New Year objectives. So that not only do we keep to our resolutions, but they then deliver our expectations. Sententious? Who? Me?

And a late same to you dxb. Have you ever noticed that when someone pessimizes (is there a verb for attempting to depress those around you) eg you say what a gorgeous day it is and they grump that the forecast calls for rain tomorrow, they hide behind the "I'm only being realistic" defence. as though admitting that something good is happening is  delusional.

What's the antonym? Optimistifying? And if nobody else can see why you're saying whatever it is, I guess you'd be optimystifying.
