are you requiring some constant reassurance wordmeister - perhaps some flatterybattery or phladulation and why isn't verbotomy asking??
wordmeister - 2006-12-08: 17:32:00
Yes Jabberwocky that's it -- self-phladulation.
wordmeister - 2006-12-08: 17:36:00
And I see that my score has gone up since I asked, so apparently it's working.
