request of you, if you don't mind: could you please clear
up the merde/merdre question? One R or two?

If this in reference to my post elsewhere then you obviously missed the fact that I explained soon after that the mis-spelling was down to a typo caused by my rapid typing. There is no 'merde/merdre' question per se. I just did not spell check it before posting it on the board. I hope we can leave it at that because I am getting sick of people contacting me to tell me I mis-spelled it. I know I did, I was unaware of this until after I posted it so this post should clear it all up. Enough already!
