Good for you, 'fessing up to your childishness. Particularly by repeating it. Confession is good for the soul.

Good. We wouldn't want Billy to be unhappy, would we?

I see. So how does that jibe with the above? Let me repeat it for you:

I thought it matched your personality, I have observed in you over the years in C.O.L.A.

How could you have observed my behavior enough to claim to see me be childish and at the same time ignore me for using the 'begin ' bug except when it's addressing you? Since I've almost never addressed you, it would be mighty difficult to ignore something and see it, too?

Either: a) you haven't ignored me despite your bleatings to the contrary, and you're lying; or, b) you're making claims you can't support with any knowledge you have of your own.

Besides, I was considering removing it for a few weeks or months. Just long enough for everybody to forget about it, and enough time for the $MOB to break it to fix whatever they broke while fixing it. But since I see you'd miss it so much I guess I should do the compbuttionate thing and keep it for awhile longer.

It was a poorly-delivered joke based upon usenet 'tardisms. I thought it would work well in your case. I'm convinced I was right even if I shouldn't have attempted the humor. It went well over your head anyway, so nevermind.

So I jumped right to the last resort by jumping on a misspelling of a misspelling? To put it another way, I've *lost* because I 'corrected' something that was already correct?

Thanks. I have a couple of dictionary links already. I can spell fairly well, too, despite what my fingers do after I tell them what I want.

I think we could agree on that. I'm not so sure we would agree on *what* you win, though.
