Ok Beth. Tom are you sure he was a General? I thought he was a Colonel (Kernel) Sorry about my humour, I am a bit sad actually over the death of David Bowie.

Why colonel is pronounced ker nel in the US
Bowie was one of the great ones. Funny thing is Sam and I were discussing his music a few days ago. She's also a fan so his legacy will continue. I suspect our fearless moderator's comment about keeping civil might be on the subject of Reno or Benteen's failings which can be a hot topic on other boards.

As I write I am listening to his music (With of a Circle - Man who sold the World CD)
I must admit how you Americans pronounce oregano as "o-rig-gan-no" is beyond me, it should be orey-garn-o.
