consider the word 'jiffy', as in "I'll be with you in a ~" there are several accepted meanings of this word, in various disciplines... a) 1/100 of a second b) one millisecond c) approximately(!) one nanosecond d) indeterminate time from a few seconds to forever http://foldoc.doc.ic.ac.uk/foldoc/foldoc.cgi?jiffy

I wrote theorem today. It seemed Ok. Then I posted the letter and remembered it should be theorum. I was feeling pretty stupid until I saw this board.
So I googled and got both. I'm sure that I did something to do with theorums at university - did it change or is it just another of our differences?

Since we're reviving an old thread I'll put my two cents in.
I once did a wagontrain that took 7 weeks to travel through Idaho, Montana and into Canada. When we were ready to go home we jumped in the van and traveled back to where we'd started in a day. It just felt weird. When I take time to do things slower (like in a wagon) it seems I have the time. But when I don't, it seems I never have the time to get everything done. (The two hours a day I spend trying to catch up on the 1,000's of posts here have Nothing to do with it.)

the perfect ending to this thread.Ah! But since we all seem to agree that this is, indeed, a "timeless" AWAD thread, then where does the thread start...................? and where does the thread end......................? all non-linear pixels of an extra-ordinary reality emerging/converging out of a mutual arisal as they are...  -I think

and where does the thread end......................? Speaking of rags...[music notes icon] "Oh, it's the thread that never ends; it just goes on and on, my friend..." (Couldn't help it--it's so appropriate!) Snoot, I like the way your mind works!

Jo, you might have said "theorum" because that's how it sounds, but it's only spelled "theorem". Googling isn't a great way to check for spellings of words, because it seems that being able to spell and having a web page are two mutually exclusive states!
