You Do Realize Of Course That........................

...........Omeecron is here for good, don't you? The word, I mean. Once the TV and radio stations put it out, then it's here for good. Omycron (Omicron) is no more. It's ceased to be. It's pushing up the daisies. It's not restin', my lad; it's dead. It is a late Omicron!

[emmie]

so?

[10ClarionSt]

So, what?

[emmie]

exactly? so what...

[emmie]

what difference does it make how it sounds, it's what it does to people that counts.

[AuntPG]

Oh! Micron ! Wherefore art thou micron :o)

[dannyk13]

Correct pronunciation according to Chambers is o-mi-kron.

[10ClarionSt]

I'm just, like, sayin'. Yer know? Some users on here were expressing their concern about it in another thread t'other day.

[emmie]

surely there are a million things to be concerned over, the pronunciation of one word doesn't come close -

[AuntPG]

Emmie why so crabby this morning? Is it more the Poster getting your goat rather than the actual contents of the post? (as usual) lol!

[emmie]

what?

[dannyk13]

10cs, You do realise that here in the UK we do not spell it as realize?

[emmie]

why are always so rude, would be my first thought Apg.

[Redhelen72]

I don’t know why the OP is bothered about the word I would e more concerned about dropping dead of it!

[emmie]

RH, me too.

[10ClarionSt]

Don't get fussy about trivialities, danny!

In answer to AuntPG; some users on here only have to see my name to get their hackles up, no matter what I say. 'tis true, isn't it Emmie? :o)

[emmie]

much of what you post just riles people, it doesn't me by the way, irrespective of what you might say.

[dannyk13]

Just following the triviality of your OP.
