Greetings All

I should probably not publish this to the list. I will speak once, and then
be quiet, but I can not hold my tongue (I know, it's too slippery).

The assertion that "idiot" is not a derogatory in British parlance is
absurd.

>From the Cambridge (England, not Massachusetts) dictionary. First
definition.

Maybe I should look up "derogatory."
