Personnally, I prefer keeping posts of a reasonable length. That is, if I reply to a specific point, I quote only the part of the initial post that is relevant on the point.

what i find really hard to read are awfully long posts without proper sentences punctuation and paragraphs these i usually dismiss but that s just me

Hmm Pepto-Bismol pink is me [img]smile.gif[/img] that might work out ok....

Edit: ok the spelling thing was nagging at me...it is spelled fuchsia meaning a vibrant reddish purple [img]smile.gif[/img] You don't have to tell me....I already know...I'm anal.

A different shade of fuschia !

Yes, I also thought there was a 'C' in 'fuschia', there is one in French, but funnily I didn't want to make a spelling mistake, and I found 3 Web pages with 'fushia' without C. That's why. Is there or is there not ?

Well I went with the meriam Webster version of fuchsia but a search also came up with three alternate spellings, so god alone probably really knows the truth [img]smile.gif[/img] I suppose it really doesnt matter since I understood your meaning, and in the end, the communication is what is important and not the spelling.....it was just one of those things that stuck in my head

A debate over the spelling of a shade of red/pink? This is certainly a fuschia-letter day for IronWorks!

*I* still say it's Pepto-Bismol. There's no doubt as to how to spell that! [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Now,now, Davros, I owned up to my misspelling of the word, poor form to keep bringing it up this long after the fact. As for the C in fuchsia, you will note I was not correcting Moiraine, but asking a question , since I also spelled it the way she did. So I looked it up. But there are many spellings of the word on the net, so I chose the websters version.

Saz is right anyway, it is Pepto [img]smile.gif[/img]

Gee, I musta missed that - not like me to miss seeing you use the "w" word - in that case, my bad.

PS - you couldn't post me a link could you
