*** The Knight of Glin is not called "Sir Glin." His local newspaper
(formerly my local newspaper), the Limerick Leader, calls him Mr. Desmond

The heirs to the ancient Irish chiefs -- which is more or less what the
Knight of Glin is -- aren't much discussed, and when they are, people often
give wrong information. We used to be slightly acquainted with The O'Grady,
because our children were in school together, and he was known as Col.
O'Grady, and not "sir" or "lord."

If you are interested in this stuff at all, have a look at:

It doesn't matter whom you were responding to. This is an open forum. If
your response to Sacha was supposed to be private, then it belonged in
email. -- Q

To whom you were responding. Or is this the sort of pedantry up with
which you will not put?!

I left the post I was responding to intact -- although you have
deliberately removed the references to it in your quote -- so it was
perfectly clear to even the most clueless moron that I was responding to
Fjae.

If you insist on playing childish games, people will see you for the
malicious asshole that you really are.

Firstly, when I answered you, I hadn't seen Q's post. Secondly, contrary to
the behaviour you exhibit on here, this is not a private discussion board,
it is a public newsgroup and anyone can answer, comment on or amplify any
discussion they wish. Thirdly, "thank you Sacha for the additional
information you posted for our benefit", would have been polite at the very
least.

He has told you before she is she. I had not seen Q's posted because I
hadn't opened it. I thought you might be interested in the additional
material. In future, I won't bother and you can remain as ignorant as the

Tsk. You mustn't lacerate yourself this way Q, or you'll have to
report yourself to your ISP as you do others. I quoted only what you
yourself composed. It's only grammar; don't take yourself so
seriously! It's not as if you were caught out ruining a young woman's
life or anything unforgivable like that.

Not all posts go to all servers at the same time.

Too many people think email is instantaneous (it can be... or not; some
doesn't show up for several hours) and that all people on a newsgroup
get the messages at the same time (they don't).
