Sorry about that, i guess i shouldn't have turned on "rant-mode" in the
first place.
I was using "these" in more of a Rokbeigalmki _dhazm_ sense...not a
generalization, but a specific pointing out "this one, and that one, and
that one over there, but not these or those".  An acquaintance of mine
once told me that "Yiddish is just Jewish Ebonics", seemingly not knowing
the slightest thing about either one.  I guess i just get pissed off too
easily.  No offense was intended to all the multitudes of people who
don't share the misconception view that i was talking...err, ranting
about.
