<br>
<br>Please be aware that I'm attempting to eliminate spurious characters=20
<br>from my posts, and currently awaiting reply from list owner. This is the=20
<br>only list of 6 which manifests the problem. Please bear with me.
<br>
<br>I'd really like to comment on 'dubbing', but I'll postpone for the=20
<br>moment.
<br>
<br>Two short comments:
<br>"English is Tough Stuff" a New Zealand friend with the Germanic (?)=20
<br>given name of Frith was forced to adopt the name Marie during a long=20
<br>stay in France, due to the inability of the natives to wrap their=20
<br>tongues around the terminal 'th.'
<br>
<br>"Coffee" Apocryphal waitress in backblocks Australia:
<br>
<br>"Do you take sugar?" Customer: "Yes" Waitress: "Well don't stir it."
