He comes and goes. His last visits weren't that long ago.

The mods have to grasp the sh*tty end of the RfM stick. They do it for us. I'm sure it's not always fun - and it's actually a pity it's necessary - but it is. Thank you CZ, Tevai, Maud and others who shall remain nameless (at least for me ;-).

No sign of him in the search results. Was this before The Great RfM Crash of twenty-whenever-it-was? Somebody help me here. I have no idea of the year, but we lost the whole recovery board for some time. Eric K or Susan I/S would know. 'Twas a terrible time, me hearties (calling for Ziller...)

I agree he's creepy. There's something wrong with those eyes... OMG, he's a reptile!

This clearly varies (though probably only in intensity) depending on the society that you live in. In the US, the list of things "done while black" which could risk someone's life is horrifyingly long. In France, there is prejudice and the police certainly don't treat my (French) black friends as well as they treat me (a foreigner) , but it's not usually life-threatening. Our poli

Don't worry, the different voltages only apply to the amplification. The guitar itself is not powered.

For a moment, my brain did a flip and I read the title of this thread as How to spite and wreak English No, my real name is not Spooner.

Thanks Anybody, very interesting. In the 1980s, I knew a 'worker priest' (prêtre ouvrier) whose calling was to go out into the workplace and minister to workers. He was a very active, pretty left-wi_ng trade unionist, which made me laugh as, being a "good" Anglican boy myself, he remains the only Catholic priest I have ever known well. He was a lovely, gentle but determined man.

I always wondered if the "I wish I would have" might have come from the large number of German immigrants to the US. Certainly, to this Brit whose profession is the English and French languages, quite a few constructions inAmerican English strike me as possibly due to non-English-speaking immgrants "ironing out" the more difficult and specific bits of British English.

I didn't know about this (and am appalled but not surprised). There are so many things in British history that have been conveniently forgotten. But we celebrate slave owners, etc.
