Gotta share this, and see what floats up... Indeed...most interesting in particular is the unofficial nature of the proposer of doing this. Most significant imo is response of Tim Skirvan noting the Big-8 could likely fast-track group creation in comp.* --

Apparently all the main American and English dictionaries, including all the main online dictionaries, have copied an incorrect definition of the word siphon from the Oxford English Dictionary, in which it has been wrongly defined for about a hundred years and in which it is described as working by atmospheric pressure when in fact it does not do so. The mistake has only just been discovered! I thought the Americans always wanted to distance themselves from the British, but it seems they are only to willing to copy our word definitions, even when they are wrong! Aren't they a bunch of copy cats ;-) Mike |
