Oh, I think I've figured out your 'laconic' reference, Wigglesworth. I think you mean that avoiding the redundancy I pointed out would of necessity, in your opinion, be motivated by an aspiration to be laconic. I disagree with you on this. I see that in my post, I used single quotes and double quotes quite strangely. Well, it's 2 am.

<< What? Is 'Besides Each and Both' redundant? In what way is it redundant? I truly don't see it.>> You claimed 'also' redundant: get rid of it and the meaning's still perfectly clear. I claimed if you had been a really good redundancy seeker, you would have whacked 4 words 'Besides Each and Both' instead of 1 'also'. Please reread the whole post, get rid of these 4 words and see if you are confused. Message 9672427 The moral of the story is Some people can see a few words back, others can see whole sentences... Actually, redundancy ain't no crime. I am not offended by anyone or anything on this thread. Something about heat and kitchen, I think.
