Well, "always always always" was maybe a bit exaggerated. I should have said: "usually", "in general" :) I can only take comfort with the thought, that (almost) all your examples are compound words :)))

What the heck is a "wantij"? Jan ===== "You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe." --- J. Michael Straczynski __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
