"J. Mc Laughlin" wrote
Words have meanings.
Not always the *same* meanings to each of us, and it would seem pretty arrogant
to for one to presume that only *their* meaning is correct.
I'm reminded of a passage by Lewis J. Carroll......
'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone,' it means
just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.'
'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many
different things.'
'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master - that's all.'
