JP:
Not good enough; you said there was a conspiracy. (OED definition: "A combination of persons for an evil or unlawful purpose".
While you are looking up the meaning of conspiracy for yourself, please also check on your word dichotomy.
Apologies for reverting to my DS mode, but you do ask for it!
Are you ever not in your DS "mode" JP? Both you and caz seem to think that the main function here is the marking and correcting of homework. I'm not going to enter into the dictionary definition game with either of you. I think I've made clear what I have to say. Others may agree or disagree. This thread is about more serious matters than cleverness. It is about a terrible tragedy, a gross injustice and the fervent desire that no more of either be suffered if at all possible. No doubt there is some clever Latin tag to cover all that. In which case could we please be spared it?
PS Thanks for your intervention Thor, I see you also got marked down. See you in the dunces' corner! Lol!
