Loose interpretation: We can call a cow an aardvark if we want. We just don't. Some editor guy insists on a reasonable amount of site accuracy. Go figure.

And there was something else...what was it?...Oh , yes - Trolling = suspension.

Long ago, Wayne told me that before taking such action (against English speakers, anyway), one warning needs to be given first. Consider this to be it.

This site's forums used to be positive and amusing. Now they can often lean toward the bitchy/whiny side of things.  Seriously, someone at moderator admin level should carefully contemplate sorting that out. ...Oh, wait...I have...

Petulance doesn't become you....

Uncle's had a very busy week what with all the specialist appointments (they told him to rest again; he didn't) and the catch-up shopping to do that he's put off for 2 months. I won't even go into the "Epic Spring Cleaning".

Right now, he's upstairs swearing at one of the old PCs he found under the piles of mail & half-eaten zombie corpses from Halloweens past. He's ripping out PC connections & plugging them back in, replacing dead motherboard batteries & making all kinds of damn noise...which has just stopped. I think he got it to work.

Very likely. I'm still hunting for proof so I can merge them. If nothing else, I fixed the name. It's 'Miku', not Miko.

Hatsune Miku is the anime poster girl (or the main one, anyway) for Vocaloid audio software [Crypton Future Media]. A "miko" is a Shinto shrine maiden, easily identified in countless anime by their red hakama (long, wide pants), white haori (kimono jacket) and often some white and/or red hair ribbons.

In the interest of peace & quiet, I left the name done properly. In Japan, among other places, family name comes first, then the given name - "Hatsune Miku" rather than the Westernized "Miku Hatsune".

Even though I know it's more correct to do it this way, I'm in the habit of using the Westernized names, in accordance with the "Grievous Mental Confusion Act of 1936" - a.k.a. the "Don't Confuse The F*ck Out of Everyone, You Bastard" Act.

I allow both to be used here as there are no solid rules about this. Not in this country, anyway.
