There was I going to read this, & lo & behold, it ain't there yet! Remove at your leisure 14:57, 5 March 2008 (CST)

Thank goodness I had backed up it!Hayford Peirce 15:27, 5 March 2008 (CST)

Backed it up? Where? I created the approval page first, then the talk, and when I went to the article, it said the usual 'you have followed a link to a page...'. Anyway, I'm glad no harm was done, & I look forward to reading it. I've also commented on the Proposal page (to The or not to The?) - Ro Thorpe 16:15, 5 March 2008 (CST)

Well, there was an Edit Conflict when I went to save what I had written, and I found your comment. But by having Previewed my text, I could use the Back Arrow to go back and Copy it while I fiddled around with how to get it into the *real* article. If you don't Preview your text and you get an Edit Conflict, guess what, boyo? You've lost yer blooming text that you've just sweat over fer 3 hours! Hayford Peirce 16:21, 5 March 2008 (CST)
That's terrible. I have two methods of avoiding that (as I am a danger to myself as well): saving very often, which suits my bit-here bit-there style, &, if it's anything like proper prose, preparing stuff in Word beforehand. Oh, yes, and always Preview...Ro Thorpe 18:06, 5 March 2008 (CST)
The Beetles featuring John Lenin and Ringo Star - I love it! - Ro Thorpe 18:13, 5 March 2008 (CST)
Hehe. All I know about those guys is that I hate them! Hayford Peirce 19:17, 5 March 2008 (CST)
What did they do? Ro Thorpe 11:49, 7 March 2008 (CST)
They brought their unbearable music to the previously innocent shores of Young America and, once again, proving Gresham's Law, drove out the Good. (As personified, of course, by such as the K-Trio and Joannie....) Hayford Peirce 11:53, 7 March 2008 (CST)
And they corrupted the formerly innocent Zimmie? Ro Thorpe 11:59, 7 March 2008 (CST)
I can't remember if he wuz corrupted before or after -- a true prevert in any case! And a *lousy* singer! He wrote some great stuff -- but *only* if Joannie wuz singing it....Hayford Peirce 12:48, 7 March 2008 (CST)

That's inspired me to finally create this, the last red link on my user page - I must look up the year. Ro Thorpe 18:31, 5 March 2008 (CST)

Incarnation, version, etc.

"Generation", ignoring any comment about "older generations", seem apt. That's not an uncommon usage to speak of soldiers currently serving in a military unit of long lineage, in which their forbears served. Howard C. Berkowitz 06:54, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
