Will somebody please tell me where we were writing about collective nouns recently? I cannot find the thread here--and I've searched--so I must be losing my mind. You can PM me, and that'll be fine and I'll delete this thread if necessary.

Thanks.

Are you referring to "Bill Bryson's take on it" (in Miscellany)? Or is that way too recent?

That's the one! Thanks, B.
