<br>I wonder how long the expression has been in use in England?  It's used
<br>quite often there, also in the contexts RC mentions (I just moved back
<br>to
<br>the US after years in London), and if it was in use during WWII, GIs
<br>could
<br>have picked up the expression there.
<br>===========================================
<br>
<br>The above was probably meant for the list-at-large, and I forward it.
<br>
<br>This "reply to" option is surely a protocol set up by the list server--I
<br>really can't see what control I have over it. My inquiry to the (human)
<br>ADS list operator re my last little [=20] suffix on each line problem
<br>was ignored, perhaps someone with more patience than I would like to
<br>nail this one.
<br>
<br>Kind regards - Ross Chambers
