He would be horrified that future generations took him seriously.

Melvil Dewey proposed something similar. In fact, at the end of his life, he was spelling his last name "Dui." And he was serious!

I'm definitely from the "Midlands." Well, I did grow up in WI, but I've lived in Northern NJ for over 20 years. Every so often I hear myself say something in "New Yorkese" and cringe.

Is this the same PrincessCleo who regularly puts out overlong entries? I'm just saying. ; )

MmmmmCleo....

Nah, they're really moderate entries with a lot of links. Not the same thing at all.
