OP >Apparently for some readers "third from last" means fourth position and for others "third from last" means third position.
the point I've tried to make here is that I (it's all about me, you know) don't know what "third from the last" means; whereas I know exactly what "third from the end", "third from the right", or "last but two" signifies.
