I could see "chez" and "sans" being added as marginally used. "Via" is IME used very often, especially when you're talking about transporting ("to LA via Dallas"). "Avec" and "per" I have a harder time seeing. ============================== Thomas Wier <trwier@...> "If a man demands justice, not merely as an abstract concept, but in setting up the life of a society, and if he holds, further, that within that society (however defined) all men have equal rights, then the odds are that his views, sooner rather than later, are going to set something or someone on fire."
