Siobhan probably is not an Irishman - rather an Irishwoman. If you accept
the work of James Joyce, you should also accept the work of e e cummings,
which would make the whole question of capitalization of I less clear.

Regarding the use of 'hey' as a greeting, see Little Women by Louisa May
Alcott (19th century), in which the highly respectable Mr. Laurence uses
it as a greeting regularly.

Finally, if we did not allow our language to alter, English would still be
at the stage it was at when Shakespeare was alive, with 'Fie's and
'verily's and the sort.

If you don't like the changes being made to the english language, I'm
afraid you'll probably have to grin and bare it.

Thanx, TTFN

PS - On a math subject, in a previous claim, someone claimed that
A+Bsqrt(2) always had a square root of the same form for rational A,B.
This is not true: try A=0,B=1.
