I don't know what you think you are proving by giving dictionary definition, which point to this use as "OFTEN" used in this context anyway. I was proving that my use of the word was correct, and that your chiding me for it was incorrect. You will notice that the Dictionary gives my usage first, and yours second. When I posted the Dictionary definition, I did so without comment, figuring it was minor, and I was not trying to "One Up" you. But you just can't stand to be wrong, can you? I have noticed that you have this problem with other posters, and that you have engaged in multiple posts with others trying to prove that your word usage was correct and others was wrong. Why don't you relax and admit that you can make a mistake. I am not going to engage in multiple posts with you about this. BTW, when I use part of your previous post as a "Header" I am not trying to take you out of context. I am simply giving readers a reference to save them the time of going back to read the previous post. So quit having a "Hissy Fit" about it. :>)
