The way the pointed end points does make a difference.

AnnaStrophe is undoubtedly out shopping for grits and too busy re-arranging her new kitchen to be bothered.

OK, if you say no more about it, maybe we can pretend it never happened by the time the forces of Laura Norder are both back

WHOA MAV, I GOT IT! YAAAAY, me!

"in Britain, Laura Norder is a friend of the police and an advocate of strong government."

In return, thanks for the jog about Xrefer, which looks like a useful engine!

[silly digression warning]
btw, I once wrote and directed a pantomime in which I had a comedy trio of police. They of course were named Laura, Norder & Bill - the highlight of the show by popular acclaim was their rendition of a skit on The Cover of the Rolling Stone, which (in reflection of our local newspaper) became On the Cover of the Tivyside. It gave me the liberty to be brutally honest about the pathetic machinations of local politicians whose ambition was limited to "get their picture/On the cover of the Tivyside!" No one sued, and 5,000 people laughed a lot!
