    Political correctness is a disease.

    I once had a message board debate with Yoda about something or other and was reminded (by Pip) about Yoda’s disability.
    Her disability had absolutely nothing to do with the discussion we were having but it didn’t stop others joining in and deciding – quite wrongly – that Yoda had a right to win the debate because she was in a wheelchair.

    She is not in a wheelchair :roll:

    Didnt think so!

    I wasnt even aware that yoda was in a wheelchair. Her humour and intelligence are the things that shine thru.

    . I dont know if grammar is disappearing with the coming of text speak. Perhaps it is just that our language is evolving. We do not speak , today,in the same way that Shakespeare did

    two separate points.

    1. I grew up with stories from the war told by my mum. She used to talk to me for hours about the air raids , rationing, putting a stocking line up the back of your legs with gravy powder , how her bro was killed on the Prince of Wales ( he was awarded a posthumous VC) etc. I loved hearing those stories. However, i was , naturally,never in contact with ppl who fought in Crimea or the Spanish war. Perhaps it is just that as the ones who experienced these things pass away, there is no one to keep the realities of it alive.

    2. I dont know if grammar is disappearing with the coming of text speak. Perhaps it is just that our language is evolving. We do not speak , today,in the same way that Shakespeare did.

    I remember asking my daughter once if she had read a particular book and she said no but she had seen the film! I dont think that its kids that are divorced from reality, just that adults try, sometimes, to re write history.
