Yawn! I feel as if I should put my hair in a bun and wear bifocals! Why do I love this stuff? Is it an illness? A mutant gene?

Nah -- it's a sense of fun.

(Be warned: I wear bifocals. No bun, however.)

The Fowler I was referring to is "The King's English," which is only 363 pages long. Are you referring to "A Dictionary of Modern English Usage"? I don't have it, alas.
