everyone who copies stuff to post here should take the time to peruse Faldo's link. I was struck particularly by this item: "Are you reproducing an article from the New York Times because you.. didn't want your readers to have to register at the New York Times web site?" Templeton says that this probably isn't "fair use".

group_of_groups group Uh...huh; and this would be located in their Department of Redundancy Department, right?
Nope, Jackie. This would be endorsed by the Association of Venn Drivers.

the Association of Venn Drivers.
The big problem, when attempting to drive venns, is to get them through the cattle gate of the corral, once you're home with them. They're so damnably independent -- like us.

OK OK! I'll bite. What's a venn?
I know what a venn diagram is, but that doesn't seem to fit the context here.

A play on words, gentlemen, which seems to have gone over everybody's head and wasn't that funny anyway.
A group of groups can be considered using a Venn diagram (hence the reply to Jackie's post above). The play on words was to compare this to a van (or small truck to someuvyou), add driver and turn it into a union (or group).
As I said, not very funny and even less so now that it has had to be splained.........

Oh! There's a psychoanalyst out there somewhere with his retirement riding on you, John.

If his "retirement" is a big, buxom, blonde then that's okay with me......
