Have you swallowed the Oxford English Dictionary, Thesaurus, and any other text book on English grammar you could lay your hands on? Must have been hard to digest!!

No snoopysue, not the OED, unless you call it Google. I know that NL wouldn't google as she's literate. Must be googling, as some of the words they use in the U.S. of A. The word "period" instead of a full stop! What's all that dash dash (hyphen hyphen) -- nonsense. Hand on heart, I can honestly say that I've never heard of hyphen hyphen in anything that I've written or read.
