How did you know that I'm a UK Civil Servant? :-) I suspected it when you used the word "didactic" :-))) Heh! Actually, I heard that word on a Scout Leader training course - but my employer was paying, and they gave me the time off! But I bet you took it back to work with you and used it a lot!

Every profession or pastime has a language of its own. Use of such words is mandated, and brigaded by managers ;-) -- MatSav |
