Hi, as my name suggests, an Aussie here...
I post as Platypus on several tech help sites, including intermittently on BC |

Thank you for the welcome. I'm naturally taciturn (ie not a prolific poster). Some people are glad of that, due to my tendency to use complicated expressions and long convoluted sentences!
 In fact my sig on one site is a reminder: "Don't use long words. Preferably substitute diminutive equivalents." |

As long as your dialogue is succinct and you aren't extemporaneous and don't use extraneous or ambiguous language we don't mind, knock yourself out!

Yeah, what dc3 said.
 Platypus.I use small words, too. -------------------- I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant!  |

Hi Platypus and Welcome!
We might just have to open a special thread for you and the TV's Bard = Zarathustra, for separate discourse. Bring it all on! -------------------- The only easy day was yesterday....
