No, dear, your use of " typography " is incorrect. It referrs to type (not typing, not anything at al to do with print on the internet ! );

Earlier, you made reference to one of your "infamous typos." Typo, of course, is slang for "typographical error," and "typographical" pertains to "typography."

By your contorted parsing, you can't have a typo on the interent... and yet you clearly have and claim many.

To hold that "typography" only applies to the printing press is to hold that language is static, and that words never acquire new usages or connotations. "Linguisticwise," that's not how it works.

You also called me " lazy ", for no apparent reason, called me " pooky ",

I called you lazy because at #1218 you suggested that I do the research to support your mistaken contention. I called you pookie becasuse you called me "dear."

You want to play these games ? Then take it like an adult, when you've been chastened and rebuted; instead of being a weasel. ; ^ )

Only occasionaly, as your distorted sense of your gravitational pull in the Solar System grows tedious when encountered on a regular basis.

You accuse others of projection? Get the net.

If the creators of South Park ever meet you, they'll have to rescind John Edwards' award.
