Ya know, I do enjoy this forum. The contributors really do have a broad range of interests. A fella can learn lots. Like coffee originating in Africa. Never knew that. Maybe I will let it slip into my ... |

Mmmmm, an etymologist would be the best option. I can claim to be a philologist by inclination if not by training. I am the sort of nerd who will try to work out latin roots and their meanings from mo ... |
