Brings further ambiguity to the term "retired" as well. (Like my 65 yo
father just had a wheel transplant)

Since I live in W5... How does one say/spell Titanium/Titanum?

I look at signs on the side of the road "Hiway" and cant for the life of
me work out what that means...

Peter, its actually said in the US how it looks. This gets real
confusing for me! (Along with driving on the WRONG side of the road! grin)
