	MrPedantic  #149589  Wed, 19 Oct 05 11:39 PM Rather a harsh judgement, Anon. (You're not thinking of "eunuch"? They can be quite improper. Well, verbally, anyway.) MrP    MrPedantic

	My Shadow  #153709  Tue, 01 Nov 05 12:06 AM Hı I think A UNIQUE is correct because UNIQUE starts a long "U" sound so "U" isn't a vowel sound in here    My Shadow Joined on Mon, Oct 31 2005 istanbul , TURKEY New Member (02)
