In reply to:

Come to thnink of it, you can say, "yes" in a whole range of ways,can't you?

This brings to mind the (possibly apocryphal) story of an eminent professor of linguistics who at some learned gathering or other read a complex paper describing how although many languages were known where two negative words in a sentence made a positive statement, no example had ever been found of a language where two positives made a sentence negative. When he finished, and before the moderator could ask for questions, a voice was heard from the assembled lesser lights standing at the back of room: "yeah, yeah."
