I just have to tell you, I had this *exact* experience today! I was talking to a new cow-orker of mine (no, actually she's quite nice) about where she was from and I guessed she was from the southern suburbs of Stockholm, which turned out to be true. I was just about to tell her that "I could tell because..." when my *other* co-worker (who has heard my linguaramblings before) shouted out -- and I kid you not, these were her exact words: "No, not again!" :D Daniel Andreasson -- http://www.conlanglinks.tk
