                And what do you call a man who goes from house to house doing it?  There are such men you know.

                    Mostly I agree with you - spatherdabs, though, is a flattering term
                
                considering.

Yes I don't think that one has been used for a while Naut . A bit of a mouthful but I don't know what it has been abbreviated to by now. Interesting though.

                yes that's true...they take a molehill and make it into a mountain!

                Spatherdab...well it is a new oldie for me. How I so agree with you that the mass media has become exactly that. They really set out to make trouble and to push their pet themes and leanings. I don't have time for any of them.
