What?

Is 'Besides Each and Both' redundant? In what way is it redundant? I truly don't see it.

"Also" is redundant for the reason I gave.

I have no opinion about whether you aspire to being laconic or not, but wonder why you think I do. There must be some sort of misunderstanding.

The reason I said that "you have probably already noticed that you typed..." is because it was obvious, so I figured you probably had already noticed it, so mentioning it would look awfully like a cheap shot. But you know how this thread is-- if I had mentioned the redundancy of 'also' and not mentioned 'all ways,' somebody would be sure to say I'd missed it. That's the game we play here!

Have I offended you in some way, Wigglesworth? If I have, I apologize.
