Re: [U2] UniVerse Dictionary question

Well, I'll be a son of a biscuit eater! I never knew that. I've done it 
the same way Martin does for 35 years. I just checked it in Jbase and it 
works. You learn something new every day. Of course, I consider a day a 
total waste if I don't either learn something new or catch hell about 
something. As you can guess, I don't have many wasted days.

Thanks, Dan!
